TEAHUPOO (11) holds form and can win. There is no doubting credentials winning the G1 Stayers Hurdle last year while did little wrong when runner-up in the defence of his crown at the Cheltenham Festival this time. Can make his first start here a successful one. Willie Mullins trains the unexposed KITZBUHEL (7). Interesting now significantly up in distance on the back of a victory attempting the 2m G3 Red Mills Trial Hurdle at Gowran. Reigning champion STRONG LEADER (10) has not been in top form this season however cannot be ignored back here with conditions to suit. HOME BY THE LEE (6) also warrants notable consideration.
