Never Off Duty (4/5), Bosco Di Alco (9/4), Jimmy Breekie (8/1), Ballybryan (14/1), Stole The Show (16/1), Come Home Quick (25/1), Mallwood (25/1), Baby Brain (50/1), Larkfield Lass (66/1)

NEVER OFF DUTY looks likely to prove hard to beat following a promising debut last month. The selection took a point-to-point earlier in the season and should appreciate the extra 3f he'll encounter here compared to his hurdling debut. Of the remainder Bosco Di Alco has some solid efforts in maiden hurdles to his name and can claim the second placing while the debutant Mallwood wouldn't need to be anything special to claim third in this maiden hurdle.
