CROCUS BAY is from a family of decent hurdlers and though beaten four times into second in bumpers this should be his game and he can make a winning debut. Dual point-to-point winner Paudi The Punter won a Navan bumper in September but was beaten a distance when tackling hurdles at Punchestown earlier this month. Roadtoabbeyfeale has been making steady progress and was noted staying on over 2m1f at Killarney so tonight's trip should prove ideal and he looks the best of those with hurdling experience. Winning bumper Ambush Angel has shown a glimmer of ability over timber and can do best of the remainder.
