Dual bumper winner FRIARY ROAD pulled clear of the rest with the runner-up when making a successful debut in this sphere at Navan recently and, with the promise of better to come, he can make it 2-2 over hurdles. Fast Felix has landed a C&D maiden and Listowel handicap on his last two starts and has to be respected in his quest for a third win a row. Wholelotofbusiness has been knocking on the door of late and also enters calculations.
