Mulberry Restaurant At Breaffy Hurdle

Landsman is an interesting contender based on his decent showing at Leopardstown on debut in December, form that reads well now, and his trainer knows a bit about placing one for a race like this. Linger was found to be lame after his Cheltenham Festival flop and, if recovered, will pose a big threat to all concerned but with enough room for doubt, SWORD FIGHTER might be the value call. He hasn't set the world alight over hurdles but has already been asked some tough questions and given his ability on the Flat, better is surely to come. Dodgybingo and Ineffable are also considered in an open race.
