RAPID RESPONSE, who has been in good form over fences, unseated his rider in this last year but reverts to hurdles on a 16lb lower mark than over the bigger obstacles. Western Boy is the only course winner in the line-up and he's on a fair mark nowadays while Boher Cailin wasn't right in a Listed contest last time and makes her handicap debut. Arctic Light will have found 2m too short at Cork while the consistent Ashqar warmed up for this with a run at Dundalk. Callthebarman has changed stables after a couple of poor runs but still looks high enough in the weights as does Magic Sea, who has been struggling since scoring at Bellewstown in August
