Jim Will Fix it hasn't run over hurdles since April of last year but is well enough treated compared to his chase rating and his jockey's claim can help him reach the frame. The lightly-raced Sydney Thompson was progressing nicely when last seen earlier this year and has to be a threat if fully wound up but it's INDIAN FAIRY who looks the one to be on. She scored over fences at Clonmel in October and may have followed up but for falling at Gowran the following month. She reverted to hurdles with a very good run behind Budtairis at Tramore and should be capable of going one better. Really Unique and the lightweight Rue Hill look best of the remainder.
