Great Value's second to Johnny McGeeney at Naas in February is the best hurdling form on view here but he's been well beaten in both subsequent starts. Seader was in a strong position when making a mistake at the last here last week but still managed an excellent second to Bullock Harbour. He looks certain to go well but a chance is taken on NAPA STARR. Charles Byrnes' charge has fallen on both starts over timber but won six times on the Flat and his astute handler should have him ready for this. Exit To Anywhere led for a long way on his hurdling debut over the C&D last month and with that under his belt can make his presence felt.
