33/1
Disappointed when last of 12 on his return to hurdling at Kilbeggan (good) over an extended 2m in June. Others hold stronger claims.

Followed up a victory over 1m7f on the Flat at Leopardstown (good-to-firm) with a second over the same trip on Thursday. Interesting back over hurdles.

10/3
Maiden hurdle winner at Perth (2m4f, good) by 9L recently. Stepping up in grade and likely more needed if he's to take this contest.

Forecasts

Cartwright (6/4), Go Another One (10/3), Eight Till Late (5/1), Political Policy (11/2), Babbling Stream (8/1), The Plan Man (25/1), Time For Mabel (33/1)

Verdict

This looks a far less competitive contest than the Galway Hurdle CARTWRIGHT contested last time out and he can get back to winning ways with a victory in this contest. Political Policy was a winner here earlier this season and he is taken to fill the runner-up position ahead of Babbling Stream who was the winner of a handicap last time out.
  1. Cartwright
  2. Political Policy
  3. Babbling Stream
