Fernhurst Lad can race off a lower mark back over timber on his first start for Tony Martin. A maiden hurdle winner, he can go close on his return to action but SILVER SHUFFLE could have the edge on him after finishing a close-up fourth behind a subsequent winner over track and trip last month. He gets the nod to finally get off the mark over timber. Dancers Dilemma was placed in a maiden at Clonmel last month but found the competition too tough on his handicap bow at Naas and College Boy has a shout on his earlier fourth at Listowel. Bahati Boy opened his account in a maiden at Downpatrick in August while Tynaghs Trooper posted a better effort at Wexford last time.
