William Hill Each Way Extra Challenge Series Handicap Hurdle (Div II)

First reserve; moderate sort now 0-16 hurdling, continues to struggle off this basement mark.

Second reserve; just modest form in five runs and returns from a mammoth absence; best watched.

Third reserve; improved over moderate handicap debut when a 13l sixth of 18 at Cork when last seen in August (2m1f, good); best watched.

Point-to-point winner last November and good form since, placing three times; 3.25l fourth at Clonmel earlier this month when last seen (2m, soft); still lightly raced and this ground shouldn't cause problems; claimer takes lessens her burden.

Promise when winning a point-to-point for Jonathan Fogarty but didn't show much in three maiden hurdles nor at Fairyhouse (2m4f, heavy) on handicap debut when ignored in the market; never dangerous at Clonmel last time (2m3f, soft); perhaps a tongue tie can get more from him.
