3/1

Low-mileage 6-y-o who posted a very good second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (17.2f, heavy) 23 days ago, conceding first run. Has to be taken seriously with that form having been franked.

RIGHTFOLKSPLEASE signalled he's ready to go in for the first time when a very good recent Wexford second and gets a confident vote with that form working out well. In-form maiden Chosen Shant is next on the list ahead of Wexford fourth Glas Acres. Imadpour and Baltinglass Hill both command plenty of respect too.
