Kilbeggan bumper in September and will have come on for the experience. Play The Game has had enough experience and hasn't been beaten far in big fields while Flat winner Khudra showed signs of ability over hurdles at Leopardstown where he made most until headed at the last. The latter's stable companion Champayne Lady won a bumper in May and hasn't run badly behind smart winners in her two starts over hurdles but this can go to POLITICAL POLICY. Gavin Cromwell's charge, a nine-times winner on the Flat, will have been well schooled for his debut over timber and can beat more experienced rivals.
