Advantage Point won a Punchestown bumper in June and has shown potential in both starts over hurdles. He should be suited by returning to the minimum trip though All For Joy looks to have a decent opportunity. A winning point-to-pointer, he had a run over hurdles in December 2017 and ran well though it's his subsequent bumper form that suggests he's ready to lose his maiden tag under Rules before too long. FAUGUERNON, three times a winner on the Flat in France including in Listed company, was returning from a very long break when making a solid hurdling debut at Fairyhouse a fortnight ago. He's certain to build on that and can gain his first success over timber. Nam has won three times on the Flat, including around here, while the once-raced Pairc Na Ngael made an eye-catching debut when staying on late here last month and, though that was over further, any market support would need to be heeded.
