Verdict

Routine Excellence alternates between hurdles and fences but is 18lb higher than when last scoring over the bigger obstacles. Dual hurdles winner CAHIRDOWN BOY (NAP) has never won over fences but was only headed close home over 2m6f here last time so has a fine chance of going one better. Truckers Angel scored over timber at Clonmel and makes her debut over fences though she has won between the flags. Ishan, a winner over timber at Punchestown in January, is another having his first start over fences while Added Bonus landed a handicap over an extended 2m here last month and can't have been right at Wexford a couple of weeks ago.
