Playtime Ben is best on good ground and though better known as a chaser these days is very well handicapped on his return to hurdles. Bank Bonus will also enjoy the quicker conditions and is only 4lb higher than his victory at Wexford in October. Captains And Kings has been very lightly raced and produced his best run so far when tackling this trip for the first time at Roscommon in August though he hasn't run since. AUGHER CASTLE (NAP) was beaten a short-head at Fairyhouse in November and may have needed his nest run in February but returned to top form over this trip at Kilbeggan last month and can get onto the scoresheet from what looks a very lowly mark.
