Easily Pleased showed improved form on his reappearance in a novice handicap and should make his presence felt back in this company, while Ninth Legion has placed form in similar events that gives him every chance. However, WINSTON CHURCHILL's latest second at Tramore looks the best piece of form on offer and Henry De Bromhead's charge is taken to open his account over hurdles today. Its Ironic and Jack The Hat are both capable of better over timber and Henry The First is worth noting on his debut over hurdles.
