ROACHDALE HOUSE can follow up his Sligo victory last month off a 6lb higher mark here. The selection has form on a softer surface when runner-up at Roscommon the time before and can get the better of Zafayan who is making his first hurdles start in nearly two years while Golden Spear who ran in a highly competitive handicap on the Flat last time out can claim third here off a mark 3lb higher than when a close third in a valuable contest at Leopardstown in January.
