Verdict

Trainer Gordon Elliott has his horses in great form at present and his HOLLOW TREE can gain reward for a couple of solid placed efforts this autumn by taking this competitive handicap hurdle. The selection finished runner-up at Clonmel earlier this month and can get the better of Steel Wave, a newcomer to trainer Willie Mullins yard who is sure to be fit for his first outing since taking this contest two years ago. Let's Twist Again finished runner-up last time out and can claim third today.
  1. Hollow Tree
  2. Steel Wave
