Verdict

High City Roller won a bumper for Willie Mullins and has been carrying a penalty in maiden hurdles. Beaten when long odds-on at Navan in September, he was only beaten a neck on his debut for Liz Doyle at Wexford last month. Alvarez Eclipse won a maiden point at Grennon last month but El Champo was beaten 30 lengths into second at Kilbeggan. MISTER TWIST has been running well in handicaps and, providing the ground doesn't quicken up, that experience can be put to good use here. Dylan's Day, beaten less than a length at Wexford, didn't run up to that form at Tramore next time.
