DOCTOR STEINBERG (2) bids for a four-timer after an impressive 8L victory in the 2m6f G1 Golden Cygnet Novice Hurdle at Leopardstown six weeks ago. Ticks plenty of boxes for the Mullins team. Leading player. THEDEVILUNO (18) is consistent. Won by 5L tackling this trip contesting the G2 River Don Novices' Hurdle at Doncaster. Respect as set to follow up. ESPRESSO MILAN (3) continues to climb in journey following a 4L success in a 2m6f novice hurdle at Thurles two months ago. Open to further improvement. THE PASSING WIFE (19) scored by 9L a 2m3f heavy ground maiden hurdle at Punchestown. Interesting up in trip. Set Weights INDON VILLAGE (16) holds each-way chances.
