FormscanBy Tom Weekes - FOXY GIRL ran well on recent handicap hurdle debut and might turn placings with two rivals and win. A capable keen-goer, she was anchored in rear at Down Royal and having finished nicely despite making a late mistake, should improve experience-wise and is 5lb better off with winner Magic Tricks and 1lb with runner-up The Model Kingdom – which both had a race-fitness edge. Media Naranja was defeated in one previous handicap and while raised 5lb for a recent Grade 3-placing, her rider claims 5lb. Her stablemate Ted Hastings ran well at Galway in October while Flamborough won a recent maiden and has handicap experience. Conyers Hill faces a tougher task than when winning at Cork while Coeur Sublime is in-form from the flat but his previous hurdle race was in December 2020. Jeff Kidder is a dual CD winner but needs to return to form while Royal Eagle was well beaten at Cheltenham. Common Practise runs in a first-time tongue-tie and was beaten 25 lengths at Naas.
