Verdict

Millen To One had Capilano Bridge and Jammy George behind when runner-up over timber at Fairyhouse last month and looks a chaser in the making so can confirm the form. The mare Politesse was only beaten three lengths in a Grade 3 novices' hurdle at Down Royal so has to be considered but TULLYBEG reappeared with a very convincing victory over hurdles on the latter track and his pedigree suggests he'll be suited by chasing. Wingin A Prayer has won over hurdles here and looks best of the remainder on his debut over fences.
