A low-grade handicap in which FOX LE BEL (NAP) is taken to finally get off the mark. Liz Doyle's charge has had 14 starts split between hurdling and chasing without winning but his close third behind the in-form Lucky Max at Cork last month gives him the edge and Harry Swan is one of the most experienced pilots here. Presenting Lad is also a maiden but he should win a handicap before long judged on his run at Limerick where a mistake two out put paid to his chances. Molly Kaye was nowhere near her best at Clonmel after a much better previous run at Navan while Saga Aravis looked ready to shed his maiden tag before a poor run at Punchestown, which didn't look his form. Rebelle Chaud has been well supported on a couple of occasions but was well beaten when fourth at Clonmel.
