Verdict
Snugsborough Hall has won over hurdles here and makes his handicap debut over fences after three moderate runs. Mon Lino hasn't reached a place in five starts over fences and his stable look to have a better chance with Cresus De Grissay, who showed major improvement to chase home Peacocks Secret at Wexford in October. SE MO LAOCH (NAP) has never been out of the first four since reappearing in March, scoring over hurdles at Kilbeggan. He's been staying on when going close over 2m6f here and at Galway and this looks his chance to record a first success over fences. Treasure Chest has been beaten a distance in all three starts over fences but Thekingofconnemara was battling on over slightly shorter at Fairyhouse.
