Useful hurdler HASHTAG PRETENDER made a highly encouraging start over fences when runner-up back from a nine-month break at Killarney and, with improvement on the cards, he is taken to get the better of Waterford Whispers, who achieved more than any of these rivals over hurdles and will be a serious threat if fully tuned-up for this. Birdie Or Bust, one of two stablemates of Waterford Whispers, is third choice.
