Verdict
GRANDMA DOTTY hadn't been in the best of form on the Flat before reverting to hurdles with a fine effort at Cork and she's on the same mark so gets the vote. Oskar High is 10lb higher than his victory at Killarney in August but the four-year-old Wild Desire showed her first sign of form at Fairyhouse and wouldn't need much more to get into contention under the in-form Sean Flanagan. Theturnofthesun has only won over fences while Iusetaluvheronce has had enough chances. Whenthewindblows is another who hasn't made the expected progress while Bomber Jackson is still a maiden and makes a quick reappearance after a poor run at Thurles on Thursday.
