GUIRI is the only one of these without a run over hurdles but was placed at Group level on the Flat in Germany and could be good enough to make a successful debut for his in-form yard. Jack Hackett, a winning point-to-pointer and bumper, has been well beaten on his only starts over timber but Summer Hill has shown glimpses of ability and stays the trip well, as he showed at Ballinrobe last time. Lough Sewdy looks best of the remainder.
