Another moderate handicapper and a tough one to unravel but a speculative vote goes to GO PADDY GO. Denis Hogan was on board when his mount was noted making late headway at Cork in August and as that was only his sixth start he can improve enough to get off the mark. Do The Bookies has run some good races over timber without winning including at Tramore last time so her should be in the firing-line along with Littletown Lass, who is just 5lb higher than when successful at Tramore in August and made a fair debut over fences last time. Invincible Don hasn't been running badly on the Flat and can do best of the remainder.
