Several of these have been going well over hurdles including Magic Tricks, beaten narrowly in a Grade A handicap at Fairyhouse in April. Snugsborough Hall led two out and battled to a short-head victory in a handicap here in May but it's JESSE EVANS who looks the one to beat. Noel Meade's charge was a close third in a Punchestown Grade B handicap hurdle before coming here and landing a similar event in May. My Mate Mozzie is unbeaten in a point-to-point, a bumper and a 1m5f maiden here last month and looks certain to get involved.
