Unibet Morgiana Hurdle (Grade 1)

Unfortunate at Tipperary on return and underlined his toughness and general glowing enthusiasm with victory over 19f here 39 days ago, easily coming clear. This is a whole lot tougher back in trip and he'll need a couple to disappoint.

Smart hurdler whose only blip last season came in the Supreme and he put that right with victories at Fairyhouse and here in the Champion Novice in April. Also won at this meeting on return a year ago and probably the one to capitalise if his high-profile stablemate misfires.

Runner-up in Galway Hurdle and County Hurdle in 2024/25 and awarded latest renewal of former race in July. Kept on for sixth in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket last month but this scenario may not play to his strengths.

Prolific mare who proved none the worse for a fall at Leopardstown when retaining unbeaten Cheltenham record in the Mares' Hurdle in March before following up in fine style in the Aintree Hurdle. Set for another stellar campaign and can start it off with a bang.
