FormscanBy Tom Weekes - Point-to-point winner HICKEYS HILL scored on handicap debut recently and can defy a 6lb rise. A winner at Quakerstown last November, his initial hurdles form was ordinary but, dropping to handicaps with a rating of 82, finished well to beat 15 rivals at Fairyhouse earlier this month. Although now 6lb higher, going an extra furlong in today’s race should suit. No Big Deal is a 17-race maiden but all his best form has come in recent months. Thrice a runner-up and placed-third on another occasion recently, he is sure to again run well. Three-time hurdle winner Flashthelights should benefit from his recent reappearance run.
