Verdict

Flat winner Vocito has never won over hurdles but has plenty of placed efforts to his credit while Duncreevan has only raced in bumpers. Winning point-to-pointer Carrig Rock returned to form when a good third at Gowran earlier this month and wouldn't need to do much more to reach the frame again though GINNETS GIRL, who won a bumper here in August, showed she should be winning soon when a fine second to The Model Kingdom at Tipperary and a similar run should be good enough. Western Comandor was only half-a-length behind the selection in that bumper here and will be better for last month's run over hurdles but Will You Win is 0-22 over timber.
