Dont Hesitate (2/11), Light Of My Life (4/1), Lucky Phil (9/1), Inner Knowing (12/1), Its Only Me (16/1), Rathnaleen Swift (25/1), Follow The Storm (33/1), Randall's Alannah (50/1), Champagne Nova (50/1)

Having landed a Group 3 race on the Flat in France before departing for Willie Mullins' team, DON'T HESITATE needs major respect on her hurdling introduction here. She has been off 539 days but, coming from Closutton, that isn't a major worry and a winning start seems entirely plausible. Light Of My Life was showing some promise at Tramore last month before an untimely slip and could take place money here while newcomers Follow The Storm and Inner Knowing wouldn't have to be stars in the making to carry similar aspirations.
