FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Hide Out and LISAVALLEY LASS have long since been noted down as a pair that can gain success at this modest level. Hide Out has been bitterly disappointing more than once and he could now be helped by the addition of cheek-pieces. It might be safer to depend on the Ask mare, Lisavalley Lass, in first-time blinkers. Philip Dempsey’s horses are in good order with the likes of Fighting Fit, Fou Diligence and Broomfields Jeremy on the mark for the Kilkeaskin House handler in recent times. Lisavalley Lass might be another for him here.
