Verdict
Paddy O Dee landed a good handicap at Leopardstown in January and had a two-month break before pulling up over hurdles. He'll be fancied for this with Ger Fox' claim a bonus though KILLTILANE ROSE should have his measure on these terms. She took no les than 36 races to lose her maiden tag but she did in good style over this trip at Thurles before finding an extra half-mile beyond her at Clonmel. Headford Flyer makes a quick reappearance after a good run behind the classy hunter Noble Prince at Cork on Monday but The Mooch hasn't really shown anything so far over fences.
