Castle Oliver ran very well behind the smart Commander Of Fleet over hurdles at Punchestown before landing a Fairyhouse bumper for which he's penalised. Extrapolate found heavy ground against him at Tramore after a fair hurdling debut over 2m on good going here while Trappist Monk made an encouraging debut over timber after a long break at Down Royal. SPYGLASS HILL was in the lead at this trip before succumbing to Routes Choice over 3m in a Limerick handicap. He was conceding 7lb to the winner and can finally get off the mark. Papal Present will be suited by the trip but his point-to-point victory came on testing ground.
