INDIGO BREEZE was in the process of making a fine start over fences when tipping up at Limerick last time and gets a narrow vote ahead of easy last-time-out course handicap hurdle winner Hallowed Star. Watch House Cross's chase debut run was too bad to be true and it would also be no surprise to see him get back on track after a break.
