Verdict
High Cian, who showed modest form on the Flat, was inconvenienced by a very slow pace on his hurdling debut at Sligo but will have benefited from the experience and Ruby Walsh will ensure there is no hanging around. Tony's Treasure has yet to reach a place in five starts over timber but has probably done better than his form figures suggest and looks a threat. PUTAPRICEONTHAT showed nothing in two starts over hurdles a year ago but has been doing well on the level recently and finished a close runner-up in three of his last four starts including behind the useful Separate Ways in a handicap over a mile at Galway. He may be good enough to take an ordinary maiden that shouldn't take much winning.
