Verdict

Lots Of Memories made a promising debut at Galway in October but was beaten almost a distance when runner-up to Defy Logic at Fairyhouse. He's better than that last run suggests though SILVER TASSIE, who started favourite that day after a fine run on this track, was even further behind but can't have been right and gets the vote to make amends. Ian Ferguson looks to have a nice prospect from the point-to-point field in Ceasar Milan, who won comfortably at Castletown in October while Butney Boy is also a winner between the flags and has raced over hurdles. He ran well on his bumper debut at Navan and there should be more to come.
