These look a moderate bunch but KEN'S WELL should have some improvement in him and has been finding the minimum trip against him. He followed a very good run in a KIlbeggan bumper with a fine effort on his hurdling debut at Gowran and the former point-to-pointer will relish the step-up in trip. The Brig is another likely to be suited by the extra as he's been staying on at one pace over shorter after chasing the leaders while Whatsinthecorner had his first start for Shark Hanlon in a bumper after showing promise over timber in the spring. Guitar George showed potential in a couple of races here last autumn and though not in the best of form so far this term remains a decent prospect and looks a threat to all.
