Iusetaluvheronce may take the field along here on his own with the likes of Double Speak, Realta Rathcabhain and Coolmill, tucking in behind in the early stages of this 2m5f contest. Snugsborough Benny, last seen winning an 18-runner handicap hurdle at Tipperary in May, must be fancied, while WAR OF THE PENNYS third of 18, beaten 5L in a Clonmel handicap hurdle last month, can come on for that run.
