Everglow, a winner over hurdles at Ascot for Philip Hobbs, will have found 2m much too short on his third start over fences at Fairyhouse but still ran well. Fun Light has a cracking pedigree for chasing so did well to score over hurdles while dual hurdles winner Torygraph finished lame over fences at Fairyhouse after a promising start on this track. EGALITY MANS, a winner between the flags, made all to land a Naas maiden hurdle and was travelling easily when falling three out in a Fairyhouse Grade 2 in April. He makes his chasing bow alongside stable companion En Beton, a very easy maiden hurdle winner at Tramore in April. Cobbler's Way, runner-up in a Grade 1 novices' hurdle at Leopardstown in February last year, returns after injury and may just need this.
