Verdict
Draycott Place has mainly been racing over fences but failed to take advantage of a lower hurdles mark when only third to Charlie Stout at Thurles. The winner ran reasonably well from 5lb higher at Leopardstown but has gone up another 3lb. Hughies Bay makes his handicap debut after 10 starts in maidens while Caridadi is still a maiden over timber after 15 starts. LAGOSTOVEGAS (NAP) won a maiden over track and trip a year ago and has also scored on the Flat. He was having his first start for three months when a close sixth in a big field at Leopardstown last month and looks ready to strike again.
