De Benno was conceding 13lb to All The Chimneys when beating him a neck over fences at Clonmel and can run from a 14lb lower mark than over the bigger obstacles. Grandma Dotty has been running on the Flat though not very successfully and though Theatre Run landed a Ballinrobe handicap she was soon beaten at Fairyhouse. MIRACLE CURE doesn't win often but has been running well enough in similar company to be given the nod from what now looks a lenient mark. It's a long time since Lets High Five It ran and he's still 2lb higher than his only victory.
