Stick with Oh So Lively
The progressive six-year-old was decidedly unlucky on his last visit to this track when beaten a length into second place by Night Busker.
He had difficulty negotiating one of the bends in the final half mile and lost his place, before rallying strongly in the end.
Hopefully, Oh So Lively will encounter no such problems on this occasion and the manner in which he stayed on would indicate that stepping up another two furlongs in trip now will do his prospects no harm!
Amid The Chaos will be a short price for the Kevin Cooke Maiden Hurdle, but does look impossible to oppose. He is different class to his rivals and may have made it hot for eventual winner, Pharviva, at Galway last week, but for falling at the seventh.
Ruby Walsh teams up with Amid The Chaos and he can enjoy a quick double aboard Story Nine in the Foster And Allen Mares Maiden Hurdle.
This useful enough sort on the level made a good start over jumps when a length and a half runner-up to Silent Thoughts on this track in July.
Lowlander will be a popular choice in the Isotron Ireland 10th Anniversary Celebration Beginners ’Chase.
But he didn’t jump well at Galway, fourth to Fatherofthebride, and you’d wonder just how happy he will be round here.
Preference is for Dessie hughes’ Trotsky, beaten half a length by Il En Reve at Wexford.
