Ontheropes didn’t appear to get home when favourite at Fairyhouse but was placed in a point previously so shouldn’t be written off just yet. Gordon Elliott runs two with Lisa O’Neill partnering once-raced Leopardstown third Hell On Earth and Jamie Codd on BRAESIDE. Second in both starts so far in bumpers, he can make it third-time lucky today with Itsnotinit making a belated reappearance but showing ability when last seen at Limerick. Ificudiwud is not without a chance while Fire Away was only beaten half-a-length at Punchestown and makes more appeal than The Rubinator.
