SHADOW PADDY won back-to-back handicap hurdles before a disappointing run at Killarney and is well worth another chance with his previous form working out well. Timeless Treaty remains open to improvement making his handicap debut over this longer trip, while Montecam shaped encouragingly on first run for a new yard here in July and completes the shortlist.
