Verdict
Dual bumper winner Acronym made a reasonable start over hurdles at Punchestown in November but has been well beaten subsequently. LA TEKTOR was staying on strongly when runner-up on his bumper debut in December and also when narrowly beaten by Voix Des Tiep over the minimum at Gowran earlier this month. There's plenty of stamina in his pedigree so this trip should prove ideal. Macgiloney, a dual bumper winner, ran his best race over hurdles when tackling 3m and appeared to find this trip on the short side at Gowran last time. School Boy Hours has fallen in two out of four starts over hurdles and run well in the other two so he's an obvious danger if getting round while Bay Ambition was well supported when making a successful debut between the flags in January of last year and her stable do well with similar types.
