The last time FINAL ORDERS was seen over hurdles was when taking this corresponding event last year (won 6 times over fences since) and Gavin Cromwell's 7-y-o is strongly fancied to repeat that feat from a 6 lb higher mark. The main danger may emerge from Spanish John, who left previous efforts a long way behind after 6 months off when scoring at Ballinrobe recently, while Serpolette and Cullenwaine can do battle for third.
