Patrick Mullins rode Eurotiep into second at Fairyhouse but his former owner rode him previously and is on board today. Patrick rides the very impressive point-to-point winner Recite A Prayer while Jamie Codd is on board STRANGER DANGER for Gordon Elliott. The latter was taking on a couple of decent performers on his debut at Thurles and can improve enough to take this. History Of Fashion won easily between the flags at Borris House last weekend while Palace Storm and the mare Mississippi Wine are newcomers to note.
