Butter Fingers³⁴

4/7

Modest form on the Flat for Michael Mulvany but different proposition when easily making a winning hurdle debut for Ross O'Sullivan at Tipperary last month. That useful performance suggests a mark in the mid-50s could prove very lenient back on the Flat.

Forecasts

It's very hard to get away from BUTTER FINGERS, who was the wide-margin winner of a maiden hurdle on last month's first outing for Ross O'Sullivan and could potentially be thrown in back on the Flat off a mark in the 50s. Fine Print, the mount of Colin Keane, can fill the forecast spot ahead of the selection's former stablemate Highland Bells.
