All are lightly-raced over timber and it may well be worth going along with LOUGH DERG ROSE on hurdling debut. Unbeaten in two Irish points, the selection has been snapped up by leading owners and is taken to fulfil the promise displayed between the flags. Takingitallin has plenty of experience in bumpers and made a pleasing hurdling debut at Sedgefield last month and should be in the mix whilst Parody looks a lesser light of the Paul Nicholls operation on evidence to date but could well improve. Eleanorofaquitaine ran better than the result suggests last time, has some fair bumper form in the book and now sports a first-time tongue tie and cheekpieces.
