This won't take too much winning and a suitable opportunity looks to be have found for FEVER PITCH. Arthur Moore's gelding left behind a modest debut effort when showing much improved form to only narrowly lose out at Punchestown last month. A repeat performance should suffice here and further improvement remains likely. Born To Excel is a capable performer on the Flat and merits respect first time over hurdles with recent Downpatrick fourth Clara House rating best of the rest.

CASS BLIGH has to concede weight to all three of his rivals but looks more than up to the task and is taken resume winning ways. The 7-y-o has been in sparkling form recently and turned in a career best performance when only finding Pittoni too strong in a competitive affair at Leopardstown last month. His main rival would appear to be Hunting Tower but he drops back in trip following his 2m4f Listowel success when last seen in September and his lack of a recent run is a slight concern. No One Tells Me returns from a two month break but makes more appeal than Hide The Evidence for minor money.

Glenstar has shown enough in bumpers to suggest a small race can fall his way but his lack of previous hurdling experience tilts the balance in favour of CATCH THE MOMENT. The selection made a hurdling debut full of promise when finishing third over this trip at Punchestown in January, keeping on well in the closing stages, and normal improvement could make her a tough nut to crack. There is little to get excited about the remainder but Old Shyan could figure returning to this grade.

DEVILS BIT has made a pleasing start to his hurdling career and ran a very solid race behind the well-regarded Rigidity at Gowran last time. If his progression has continued at the same rate then he should prove too classy for this field. Luddenmore was fifth in the same race and while he has work to do with the selection at the revised weights, he still has solid place claims in his own right. Longliner improved markedly upon a poor debut effort in this sphere when fourth over this trip at Naas last time and completes the shortlist.

ARGUIDOS looked to have every chance until falling at the last at Thurles when last sighted and although he has been raised 4lb for his troubles, he looks capable of winning more races off this sort of mark. The drop back in trip isn't expected to hinder the selection and he can see off Breeze With Ease to score. The last-named struggles to get his head in front but often performs with credit in defeat. He crept into the frame over this trip at Down Royal last month and is now 1lb lower. Whatever Jacksays is lightly raced in handicap company and is also considered.

TANGO MOLL has been running with credit between the flags this term and got her head in front in that sphere when last sighted. Although she steps back in trip now making her debut under Rules, she gets the vote. Maid Of Kilroe makes some appeal on breeding (dam was a bumper winner) and is worth a market check on his racecourse debut. Paul Nolan's Super Generous is a half-sister to a point-to-point winner and is another newcomer to consider.
