BENJIS BENEFIT was backed as if defeat was out of the question starting out over hurdles for Emmet Mullins 3 months ago and is probably worth another chance in the hope he can see things out better this time. Paddy Elvis is a big player after his fine Down Royal run, while Glenriver is one of a few likely improvers now going handicapping.
