Round Tower is 0-12 over timber but was well backed when second at Cork last week so has to go on the short-list. Bomber Jackson has a consistent record in maiden company and Billy De Kid can only improve on his debut second at Killarney. SMALL WORLD has been a little disappointing since finishing third at Fairyhouse in October but wasn't disgraced when fourth in a bumper at Roscommon after a break. He finished ahead of the mare Lastonetogo that day and she's finished second over hurdles here since.
