Willie Mullins has two entries. STRATUM, a high-class handicapper on the Flat and over hurdles, made a reasonable start over fences in what looked a strong beginners' race here. He may not be destined for big things but has the class to see off these. Cavallino looks much more of a chasing type but made a bad mistake at the second on his debut over fences at Gowran then fell at the eighth. Getabay was beaten a long way on his chasing bow at Kilbeggan and Mormon has had his jumping problems. Sean Hogan is held by the selection on that run here though looks the type to improve while Skol is bred to be a chaser and has more scope than most in this line-up.
