Bit below form fourth of 14 in handicap (6/5) at this C&D (good) 46 days ago. Remains potentially thrown in on hurdles form, so worth bearing in mind down in grade after a break.

Forecasts

Jeff Kidder (13/8), Made For Minds (4/1), Aprils Joy (6/1), For Everyone (10/1), Firstman (12/1), Swelltime (14/1), Oh So Chic (14/1), Forgetthesurprise (14/1), Eastern Tornado (16/1), Yamato (20/1), Lord Erskine (22/1), Loudest Whisper (22/1), Gamigin (25/1), Clan Jock (25/1), Futurum Regem (33/1), Ballybaun Star (33/1), Carried (33/1), Madeline Hayes (40/1), Bader Ginsburg (50/1), Nailed Down (66/1), Military Hill (66/1), Bolero (66/1), Inshallah Queen (66/1), Lizzies Song (80/1), Hooklinesinker (80/1), Mickah Wallace (100/1)

APRILS JOY is unexposed at this trip (scored on her only previous try over it) and shaped encouragingly at Bellewstown 20 days ago, so she gets the nod ahead of Jeff Kidder, who was disappointing last time but remains potentially well treated considering he's a Grade 1-winning hurdler Futurum Regem also warrants consideration.
