SUMMERHILL LEWIS boasts the best hurdling form to date when beaten at odds-on at Cork last month but could set the record straight here in a fairly weak contest. Conna Cross showed enough on his previous start when third at Thurles to suggest he could win a race of this type, while Henry Howard needs to show a fair deal more. Point-to-point winner Hard To Call could grab a place but may want better ground to be seen at his best.
SUMMERHILL LEWIS lost little caste in defeat when runner-up at Cork last time, in turn finishing well clear of the rest, and he is taken to go one better here. Henry Howard and Conna Cross appear to be the main dangers, although Hard To Call, a winner of his sole start between the flags, is expected to leave the form of his Rules debut at Gowran well behind in time.
He has won two hurdle races, a NH flat race and a chase from 2m to 2m 5f on ground varying from soft to soft - heavy. Beaten 1 1/2l by Toon River when second of 9 at 4-1jt-fav on his latest outing in a chase at Gowran Park over 2m 2f (heavy) last month.

CLIFF HOUSE can take this opportunity to gain his first win this season in the same race he won 12 months ago. The pick of this season's form was a fine second behind a very well handicapped horse in Desoto County at Thurles and seems to be a lot happier in smaller fields. Velocity Boy will appreciate the drop back to the minimum distance on this ground, while Noble Emperor is of interest on his handicap debut over hurdles, but the concern would be whether he'd want further than 2m to be at his peak. Lord Ben ran well enough over Christmas behind Copy That to merit consideration.
There should be more to come from NOBLE EMPEROR, who has won 2 of his 3 starts in this sphere and posted a solid effort when runner-up off a 1 lb higher chase mark at Gowran last time. The 8-y-o should be able to cope with the drop to 2m in what promises to be a strongly-run affair. Velocity Boy is 2-2 here and will offer stern resistance, while Blacklough and Mr Cosmopolitan also have claims.
Successful in two hurdle races at 2m on soft and heavy ground. Third of 11 behind Total Recall beaten 1 1/4l at 9-2 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Naas over 2m 3f (soft - heavy) last month.

SOLATENTIF was a disappointing favourite when last seen at Fairyhouse but showed a decent level of ability when runner-up to the ill-fated Long Dog in a Grade 3 here over 2m5f in October. The son of Solon has form on testing ground from his bumper days when third behind Vigil at Leopardstown in December 2014. Bellow Mome improved significantly on his hurdling debut when winning at Punchestown over 2m in February but has something to find with the selection. All Souls won well at Navan on his debut over hurdles and shouldn't be inconvenienced by a step up in distance having been a stayer on the Flat in France.
In receipt of weight from each of his 5 rivals, ALL SOULS makes plenty of appeal. It wasn't much of a race which he won on hurdles debut at Navan but he did the job well and there should be more to come from this 4-y-o, particularly now faced with a stiffer test. A Great View sets the standard on form and, despite the burden of top weight, he is feared most, while Bellow Mome also merits respect.

WATER SPRITE ran well above expectation when sixth behind Limini in the new mares' novices hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival, and a repeat of that performance would make her difficult to beat here. Marygale Bridge looks the main danger dropped back in trip having not looked to stay over 2m6f here in a Grade 3 on her previous start, while Fu's Island will probably benefit from her recent outing at Gowran Park and the step back up to 2m4f.
WATER SPRITE sets a very good standard based on her fine effort in a Grade 2 at the Cheltenham festival last time. She should have too many guns for Marygale Bridge, who beat a useful type here on her penultimate start, and likely improver High Nellie.

AVANT TOUT shaped eye-catchingly when finishing ninth behind Diamond King in the Coral Cup at the Cheltenham Festival when seemingly given too much to do by Paul Townend. The son of Agent Bleu has form over 3m when taking a handicap hurdle at the Punchestown Festival last spring, and has some solid Grade 2 novice chase form when second at Limerick behind Outlander over Christmas. Although he fell at Thurles behind Smashing, his jumping on the whole is pretty sound and he should take care of Lord Scoundrel who has stamina questions to answer. Fine Theatre got off the mark over fences at Gowran Park when beating The Winkler, who finally won himself earlier this week at Downpatrick, and this half-brother to Grade 1 winner Joncol should appreciate the step up to 3m and the testing ground.
AVANT TOUT acquitted himself well back over hurdles in the Coral Cup at last month's Cheltenham festival and will prove hard to beat back in this sphere. Indeed, Willie Mullins' charge remains open to improvement as a chaser and, in any case, the form of his effort in a Grade 2 here in December is the best piece of form on offer. Lord Scoundrel is the clear next best, ahead of Fine Theatre.

CROWN THEATRE has been keeping decent company this season and was not disgraced in a handicap at Ascot last time. Down 4lb for that effort, he could be the answer here despite his tendency not to find much once in front. Draycott Place had no answer to Fine Rightly at Down Royal last time but steps down markedly in trip as a result, while The Conker Club is collecting near-misses at present, most recently when unable to reel in Rebel Cry at Thurles.
Though he's been absent for a while, PUMBAA will prove a tough nut to crack if fit enough to do himself justice. His overall course form figure read 121134 and, with conditions in his favour and the booking of Paul Townend catching the eye, he's worth siding with. Crown Theatre is a much respected main danger, for all that he'd ideally prefer better ground, and The Conker Club is no back number.
Half-brother to Activial, won over hurdles at 2m, in a chase at 2m 3f, in NH flat race at 1m 4f and on the flat at 1m 4f including a Group 2 race. A winner at 5-2 in a NH flat race at Wincanton over 1m 7f (heavy) on his latest outing in February, beating Crank Em Up by 5l.

Harry Fry has done well with his Irish raids this term so Wincanton winner Chalonnial has to be respected, but it was hard not to be impressed with WITHOUT LIMITES last time. Liz Doyle's grey was not far behind the smart Aspen Colorado on his debut at Leopardstown and followed that up with a 12-length romp at Punchestown under today's pilot. Katy P could be the pick of the newcomers for Jessica Harrington, though a marked check for Mon Lino is advised.
Unless one of the newcomers turn out to be pretty decent, WITHOUT LIMITES and Chalonnial should have this between them. The latter created a good impression when making a winning debut at Wincanton in February but preference is for Without Limites, who thumped his rivals from the front at Punchestown and he looks potentially useful. Finula and Katy P both warrant a market check.
