LIBERATED LIGHT's jumping isn't always foot-perfect but he is nevertheless appealing off a reduced mark here on the back of an encouraging effort in a competitive 2m Navan handicap last month. This stiffer test could be just what the doctor ordered. Slim Marvel is next on the list ahead of unexposed Tramore maiden winner Miss Lia and Portarlington, who is bidding for the hat-trick following back-to-back victories over fences.
