Lord Gillygooley had shown nothing last winter and changed stables so it was a surprise when he was heavily supported at Navan last week where he ran well over 2m6f. Better was obviously expected and he should get competitive though it's about time TROUBLE AND STRIFE was winning over hurdles. Three-times successful on the Flat, she gave Game Catch, who runs in the previous race, a fright at Kilbeggan and is guaranteed to stay the trip. Outside The Door had run well enough over the trip at Down Royal to be supported at Kilbeggan and ran a bit better than his finishing position suggests while Hopefully was staying on over 2m5f at Galway and the winner has run well in a better race subsequently.
