This left-handed track should suit Irish point winner SAINT MALINAS who is taken to get the better of Pike Road in what looks a match between the pair.[Colin Russell]

Ex-Irish pointer who was runner-up on his last two starts in March/April, the second over 3m on good ground (made much of the running); hood is now tried; quite interesting on stable/hurdles debut.
Nine-race maiden over hurdles; fair run when third in a 2m handicap here last June (2m, good); having first run at further than 2m4f and needs improvement.
Ex-Irish; ordinary Flat performer; over 17l fourth of six in a Carlisle novice in March on latest run over hurdles (2m1f, good); needs to improve for this step up to 2m7f.
Yet to win in six starts over hurdles but decent third in a Haydock novice (2m5f, good; 6-5 favourite) and a handicap at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good; cheekpieces first time) on last two starts; headgear retained; chance.
Irish point winner in February 2024 (3m, heavy); fair efforts both starts over hurdles but didn't look entirely straightforward when third to subsequent winner at Carlisle last time (2m3f, good to soft; hung left); this left-handed track should suit, however, and he's a major player.
