It's exactly a year since Bobs Display beat Slievecorragh in a tough handicap over timber at Leopardstown and he's only run twice since. He'll be better for his debut over fences behind The Hurl at Thurles last month but may need more experience. Paddy O Dee made a promising start over fences when runner-up to Glacial Promise at Wexford but has run poorly subsequently while Maryriver, who looked potentially useful over timber, has been well beaten on both starts over the bigger obstacles. Most of the remainder have been badly out of sorts so this can go to YOUNG MILLY, who would have no problem taking this if in the kind of form that saw her narrowly beaten by Kylebeg Krystle at Sligo in September and she ran quite well over hurdles last time.
