4/5

Useful hurdler. Course winner. Latest win in hurdle here in April. Possibly amiss when 19¼ lengths ninth of 12 to Jesse Evans in Grimes Hurdle (14/1) at Tipperary (16f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Sets the standard on these terms if back in form.

1/1

Fairly useful hurdler. Visored for 1st time, creditable 3½ lengths second of 10 to Cottesloe Sunshine in listed hurdle (9/1) at Punchestown (16.4f, good to soft) 95 days ago, inadequate test. Respected after that effort but would be ideally suited by further still.

Forecasts

Smooth Tom (4/5), Mozzies Sister (1/1), The Big Doyen (7/2)

SMOOTH TOM wasn't at his best at Tipperary last time but impressed here on his previous hurdles outing and can successfully give weight to his two Declan Queally-trained rivals. This trip probably remains short of Mozzies Sister's optimum but she still rates as the biggest threat given The Big Doyen was below-par on his stable debut last time.
