THE FOX TULLY didn't look like getting involved off a fast pace at Fairyhouse last week but came with a late rattle to win going away and a 6lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent another victory. She's A Queen and Liberty's Gift were behind and look held but Celestial Prospect, She's A Wish and Irish Reel, who ran in another division of the same Fairyhouse event, shouldn't be dismissed, especially the former who ran very well behind Lough Ferrib that day. Walter De La Mare is 3lb lower than when scoring over the C&D in September and is on the short-list but Dart Queen is still a maiden after 25 starts.
