Scored easily on his hurdles debut at Down Royal;drop back in trip should not be a problem

Readily justified favouritism in a Wexford maiden hurdle; good ground could be a drawback
1	Where's My Jet Bay J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	157	—	41-011	-	136	114	50d	—	—	-10	4	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Dual winner gives weight all round here and will need to have progressed a good bit more

Might be better going left-handed and could make her presence felt with the allowances
2	All For Rachel Bay J:Phillip Enright T:Oliver McKiernan	J:Phillip Enright T:Oliver McKiernan	154	ht	925-11	129	144	48	169d	—	—	+17	21	5.00/1	20/1 5%
More needed here but is more battle hardened than most of these;should acquit himself well
6	Prends Garde A Toi Chestnut J:Keith Donoghue T:Gordon Elliott	J:Keith Donoghue T:Gordon Elliott	154	—	/24-12	-	134	35	21d	—	—	-3	1	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Good run at Galway; ground versatile but a couple of his opponents make more appeal
3	Blaze The Way Bay J:Danny Mullins T:Ms Margaret Mullins	J:Danny Mullins T:Ms Margaret Mullins	154	—	31P-33	-	122	98	8d	—	—	-1	0.2	50.00/1	200/1 0%
Progressed from his first to his second start over hurdles but a lot more needed here
8	Wrecking Ballbilly Bay J:Jody McGarvey T:Noel C Kelly	J:Jody McGarvey T:Noel C Kelly	154	h	2213-	-	-	-	373d	—	—	+13	14.2	62.50/1	250/1 0%
Last run was over a year ago; hooded here but faces a very stiff task on his return

Quicker ground is a question mark and the trip might be sharp on this ground; interesting
