Little Green had done well in two runs before sent into Grade 3 company at Punchestown where she fell four out when still in contention. Prince Chaparral progressed nicely on the Flat last season and though not jumping well on his hurdling debut will have benefited from the experience. Changing Times has been racing over further but his best effort came behind Bishopsfurze over today's trip at Cork. High Cian didn't appear to be enjoying the fast ground when just touched off by Charger at Cork and these conditions should prove ideal. Ruler Of All is the type that Edward O'Grady does so well with and produced a highly commendable debut over timber behind Missgiloney at Limerick where he just ran out of steam over that 2m3f. He will be difficult to beat but the vote goes to SHIFA, yet another winning import from France for Willie Mullins and certain to know what's required of her.
