JUNKYARD DOG (5) was a winner on the flat in April. No stamina worries and his sire gets plenty of decent hurdlers. Looks a solid option against this field of hurdling newcomers. FELICITY SMOAK (11) finished second in a 1m2f Fairyhouse handicap last start. Not guaranteed to stay on pedigree. Likely to be thereabouts with a clean round of jumping. HAWKESBURY LEGEND (3) won on the flat in Britain (1m1 1f) delivering his most recent outing. Worth considering. MINELLA STUDY (8) offered limited encouragement on the flat. Hails from an excellent family and this greater stamina test promises to suit.
