Where Eagles Dare won a bumper on heavy going but didn't appear to enjoy those conditions in a Limerick maiden hurdle last time. His earlier run at Navan would put him in the picture but SOUTHERN NIGHTS may be capable of the necessary improvement to take this. He gave indication of better to come when fourth at Punchestown and was bowling along in the lead when falling at Wexford earlier this month. Castlebrook, a winner between the flags, has run some fine races over timber though looks as though he needs testing ground while Connard has been chasing and made definite progress behind Burrows Saint at Gowran. Shetland Bus stays the trip and will enjoy the quick ground though an absence since July won't help but The Second Coming, a winner at Catterick in December, made a very encouraging debut for new connections at Fairyhouse a couple of weeks ago and has to be of interest.
