CAVALLINO (NAP) won over hurdles here in April and looked one to follow over fences when a close second to stable companion Stratum in a similar race to this at Thurles. He jumped very poorly at Navan next time but those problems are likely to have been ironed out. Father Ailbe was in touch when taking a crashing fall two out on his chasing bow at Cork in November and was having a confidence booster over timber the following month but reportedly broke down. Duchess Ravenwaves might have won on her chasing debut at Wexford last March before scoring over hurdles. She reappeared to chase home the long odds-on Coeur Sublime over fences at Gowran and looks the main threat. She holds Kellyiscool on that latter run while Krabat, beaten a short-head over hurdles at Punchestown, was then beaten a neck in a novices' handicap back over fences at Naas
