Verdict
EYRE SQUARE would have no problems winning this on her third behind subsequent Grade 3 hurdles winner Sayce Gold at Fairyhouse in November and though she hasn't run up to that form subsequently she hasn't done much wrong and should get off the mark. Oh Dear Me was left clear at the last when scoring at Ballindenisk under the vastly experienced Mikey O'Connor and should get into contention while Current Mood wasn't far behind Nancy Wyse at Lingstown before completing a double in minor points. The remainder make no appeal.
