Verdict
None of these have ever won around here and the veteran Youngnedofthehill is 1-33 over hurdles and though very consistent has been beaten off lower marks in his last seven races. Wolfofallstreets, an easy winner at Thurles in November, couldn't handle a 12lb rise at Fairyhouse but Mister Eddman showed dramatic improvement when well supported at Punchestown and a 5lb rise shouldn't pose too much of a problem. Morning Skye was having his first start for Peter Fahey when narrowly beaten into third at Thurles in November and has to be of interest from 3lb higher. The four-year-old SAINT D'OROUX (NAP) is making his handicap debut from what could prove a lowly mark. He's shown enough in his three starts since arriving from France to suggest he can go up the ratings and this looks a good opportunity.
