Smiling Eliza is the only course and distance winner in the line-up but is very inconsistent while Tara Dylan is 1-29 over hurdles though has been running well on the Flat recently. PAULA’S PRAYER is 0-16 but couldn’t have gone much closer at Downpatrick last time and with just 2lb extra can finally get off the mark. Latoyah Of North is rated 84 on the Flat but only 99 over hurdles and has to be of interest from this mark while Wild Desire showed some improvement here last time and is another to consider in an open handicap. Touch Of Gold was engaged here yesterday.
