Verdict

RETURNING OFFICER pulled up no trees in bumpers but cost €100,000 and now makes hurdling debut in a particularly weak affair so is selected to play a leading role. Brother Hollie returns to maiden company after struggling in handicaps and could make more impact, while Boo Radley needs considering for a top yard, too.
