Monoxide probably ran better than expected back over hurdles at Downpatrick last Sunday. Dalileo hasn’t been beaten far here the last twice but needs to reverse recent running with The Longest Day. JIMMY RABBITTE attracted market support back over this trip at Hexham in June and may be worth another chance, though improving mare River Of Joy looks a threat to all if she copes with a further step up in distance. Red Happy is rated higher over fences but is a rare winner.
