D'bru Na Boinne and Definite Income are the highest rated over timber though others arrive in better form over hurdles. Comehere Hi went close here in August and Lleyton won over 2m at the track last month. Can't Be Done scored over hurdles at Ballinrobe in August but ASHJAN makes most appeal of these over fences. He struggled in soft going over a longer trip at Downpatrick last time but had ran well for third at the same track on his chasing debut earlier and should go close back on faster ground today.
