DUFFLE COAT (3) was a smart juvenile hurdler earlier in his career. Not the same force now but three recent chasing efforts suggest he can win a race of this nature. BARDENSTOWN LAD (2) is another runner with some classy hurdling form to his name. Generally struggled in five starts over fences but must be taken seriously at this level. Veteran WALK AWAY (7) remains lightly-raced and it’s interesting leading connections continue to try and win with him. Holds the highest official rating and cannot be ruled out. RINGDUFFERIN (6) is a chasing debutant to note.
