Didn't achieve much when sixth in 2 bumpers last year (trained in Ireland on debut) but still early days with this good stable. Has had wind surgery (also tongue tied) ahead of this switch to hurdles.

Give Me A Cuddle (Ire)

Promise in bumpers this spring, winning at Huntingdon 4 weeks ago. Plenty of stamina in his pedigree so this longer trip should suit now hurdling. Leading claims.

Royal Lake (Ire)

Easily best run over hurdles last term when runner-up in 21f Warwick maiden at the end of March. Unlikely to be too far away if showing up here in similar form.
