Woods Well went for £26,000 after finishing runner-up at Ballindenisk in November and should make a fine chaser in time. Winning point-to-pointer Articulum should be scoring soon judged on a cracking run at Thurles while Cappuccino Man, another who has a point-to-point victory to his credit, had better fancied rivals behind when runner-up at Leopardstown. LITTLE MISSSERIOUS is a tentative selection to make a successful debut under Katie Walsh. She's by Kalanisi and the fifth foal of a mare who has already produced three winners.
