OFF THE MARK, a debut winner in a Leopardstown bumper last March, wasn't beaten far in a Listed contest at Limerick a few weeks later and though returning after a long lay-off and making his hurdling debut he should be good enough. Credulous is hardly consistent but was well supported when a close fourth at Wexford in April though would appreciate better ground. Esta Quercus didn't perform badly behind Fiosrach here last month and the placed horses are involved in the previous race while the well-connected Quelle Belle Vie hails from Peter Fahey's yard who won this last year.
