Tramore maiden hurdle winner TIME IS A THIEF (4) was last seen when a 1.25 runner-up at Wexford in May. Steps up in trip for chasing bow and looks a serious player first-up. Gordon Elliott-trained STEDE BONNET (3) is a two-time hurdles victor also making his debut in this sphere. Any positive market moves should be noted under talented Jack Kennedy. IMPERO (1) is five from seventeen over hurdles but unplaced in three chase starts to date. He remains open to progress upped in distance and cannot be ignored. WOODSTREAM LAD (5) looks held for win purposes but could make the frame if appreciating the longer journey.
