LOVELY HURLING was impressive in a bumper last May. He'd also shaped quite well in a hurdle prior to that and could take a bit of stopping if fully primed after his break. Autoportrait is second choice ahead of Peaceinthevalley, who would have won a point last time but for a late unseat, and the Willie Mullins-trained Jump Allen.
