The Willie Mullins-trained EPSWELL appeared to win his maiden hurdle at Sligo in August with a couple of more degrees of authority than that of Joseph O'Brien's Petit Tartare who landed a Listowel contest by ½L from Ballinska Band last month. Paris Texas and Whatsafellatodo can, as usually, run their races and are not completely ruled out.
