It is very hard not to have been impressed with TULPAR in two runs since joining this trainer. The positive tactics have worked a treat, effectively nullifying many threats, and he has shown a terrific willing attitude to battle for every inch. He is lightly raced for ten and should be raring to go after a nice break and, while he's up 5lb, remains of plenty interest. Paper Lantern got the better of the selection last time at Fairyhouse but that appeared to leave a mark when he ran subsequently. Teenager Mr Goodenough ran well at Naas last time and can do so again while Skellig Rocks isn't harshly treated on his December run at this venue. Moss Grove would have a chance if fancying the job, something he hasn't really done since his Punchestown success in October, while Minmore Oscar should be seen to better effect at this trip.
