Fermoyle looked one to follow when beaten a head in a bumper on this track but didn't make the expected progress. He had a run on the Flat at Sligo last month which should have put him straight for this. Scott Lang has had a couple of runs on the Flat in recent weeks and showed plenty of potential when placed in his only start over timber just over a year ago. Bukhill has joined Peter Fahy after a couple of expensive defeats in bumpers for Willie Mullins but if NEW YEAR HONOURS, a winner on the Flat in the UK, can repeat his form when runner-up on his hurdling bow at Down Royal he should be good enough.
