Silken Thomas showed potential for Sandra Hughes but that was in 2015 and though Noel Meade should have him fit enough it's a long absence to overcome. KNOCKMAOLE BOY has a penalty thanks to his Flat victories and didn't run well at Punchestown in February but his earlier run behind Bleu Berry at Fairyhouse is the best form on view and a repeat would see him home. Play The Part is penalised for his bumper victory but has shown nothing in two starts over timber but Bondi Bull ran quite well at Dundalk last time and may be capable of better over hurdles. Guitar George could prove the main threat as he likes good ground, as he showed when runner-up at Wexford, and he'll be better for last month's run over the track and trip.
