FormscanBy Gary Carson - MINELLA ESCAPE can gain compensation having fallen when looking set to collect on his 'track' debut at Punchestown in late September. He had asserted early in the straight then only to tip up at the second last. The son of Beat Hollow had cost %A3100,000 after winning a point-to-point in the spring and was sent off a short price on his hurdling debut. Grangeclare Native looks the obvious danger after being narrowly denied here last month. He went down by a head to Joshua Webb over course and distance and a similar effort should see him heavily involved again. Eden Flight chased home Braeside when last seen at Fairyhouse in January and has to be respected given his connections. He may need to step up again from that run, however.%0A
