4/6

Plenty of promise when placed in a couple of bumpers last season and stepped up on his hurdling debut form when second in 9-runner novice here (19.5f, heavy) 12 days ago, not knocked about. Open to further improvement and looks the one to beat.

Form: 23-32

5/4

Runner-up twice in Irish points and has shown fair form when placed on all 4 runs over hurdles. Likely to be thereabouts once more.

Home Free (4/6), Kilbarry Hill (5/4), Wee Tony (13/2), Bingo Little (33/1), Dance To Fame (50/1)

HOME FREE is more a chasing type on looks, but he's shown enough on both his starts over hurdles to suggest he's up to winning a race of this nature, so he's the obvious choice with further improvement on the cards. Kilbarry Hill is looking rather exposed now, so Wee Tony might be the one to give the selection most to think about.
