Sea Light, five times a winner over hurdles, makes a belated debut over fences but is certain to have been well schooled. Gwencily Berbas, a Grade 3 winner over timber, ran well behind the classy Our Duke at Navan but didn't replicate at Leopardstown and has been given a break. OUR DOUGAL has run four times over fences and been narrowly beaten in three and fallen in the other. He's the type to do well this campaign starting here. Modem has never been far away in some top handicaps and conditions race on the Flat and over hurdles so has to be a threat on his debut over the bigger obstacles
