O'TOOLE (2) is a former G1 place-getter on the flat at Punchestown. Won a hurdle and chase when resuming returning from a similar length lay-off. Major player. HAZY GLEN (4) made the frame in all four hurdle runs and opened her account with an easy 3L Haydock success last month. Likely more to offer and rates a leading threat to the main selection. The consistent FORGED WELL (7) gained his second victory jumping with a game penultimate start Kelso triumph. Runner-up at the same venue in latest. Danger. BOTH BARRELS (8) could go well if for his reappearance. Shortlist.
