10/1
Maiden who is creeping back down the weights and hinted at a revival when fourth of 13 in handicap chase at Thurles (16.4f, heavy, 18/1) 17 days ago, doing too much too soon.

BUTTONS AND BOWS hasn't cut much ice as a chaser yet, but she looks well in on her hurdles form now making the switch to handicap company, so receives the vote. Western Boy and Hell On Earth head the opposition.
