Few make any appeal but RIPPON LODGE has been thereabouts recently and was beaten by a higher rated horse than these when going close in a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe a week ago. Call His Bluff posted a better effort when third at Cork last month and can figure while Da Baba Elephant wasn’t beaten far over fences at Kilbeggan and can race off a 12lb lower mark back over timber today. Stadius is one of less exposed and this longer trip may suit.
