Brian Ellison sends two over for this claimer. MONSIEUR JIMMY could be the one to be on as he's a Southwell specialist so there's every chance he'll take to the surface though Ticks The Boxes is also much better there than anywhere else and is greatly respected. Jamie Osborne runs dual Polytrack winner Rippling Waters while another UK raider, Sir Ottoman, is top-rated here though hasn't been in the best of form. Grove Hill won a Sligo claimer last month though that was over 1m2f so this looks on the short side.
