Winning point-to-pointer Ran Rite has never scored over regulation fences but made most over 2m6f here until headed on the run-in. BEATING THE ODDS won over hurdles here in March and was having only his third start over fences when a close third behind the prolific Glenquin Castle at Punchestown a fortnight ago. Stealthy Tom was raised 11lb for a comfortable victory at Killarney and couldn't quite cope at Fairyhouse while Presenting Point appears to need testing ground. Laughing Trix would have a chance on her Fairyhouse victory if she's over last month's Punchestown fall while Robindevidastar makes his chasing debut after landing a Punchestown handicap hurdle and could be on a very fair mark.
