Verdict
Doyouthinkso scored over the track and trip in October and was racing over much further when well beaten in subsequent starts. Our Bobby was in touch when falling at the last at Wexford in October and it may have affected his performance at Thurles a few weeks later. Wrecking Ball Paul has been going well without quite getting there but it's difficult to ignore the chances of PIDOYNE (NAP). A dual winner on the Flat in France, she's taken time to reach her peak over timber but narrow defeats in her two most recent runs suggest she's ready to get off the mark. Cruisin Susan has won around here but over much further on good ground.
