Verdict

This looks a warm maiden hurdle with FORTY COATS the suggestion having made a smart prospect work pretty hard for it at Navan 3 weeks ago. James's Gate contested a Grade 2 contest last time and really should be a factor, with Joystick another of firm interest on hurdles debut.

  1. FORTY COATS (IRE)
  2. JAMES'S GATE (IRE)
  3. JOYSTICK (FR)
