GRAINEYHILL needs to produce a career best effort in order to record a second career success over hurdles, but there can be no denying that last month's ready Clonmel winner is on a steady upward curve. The handicapper keeps making life increasingly tougher for the Gordon Elliott trained seven-year-old, but this is a statement which is equally applicable to a few of the others including the last time out Navan winner Wee Small Hours. If there is to be a lightly raced sort who is ahead of the handicapper, it will be Benefit Of Magic, with the pre-race market moves surely most informative as to her likely chances of downing a sporting selection.
