Race Tip
FAULTY (7) placed on all three outings in jumpers flat races before a promising hurdle debut when a solid 5.5L third in a 2m maiden hurdle at Navan a year ago. Stumbled and slipped here last run at this meeting twelve months back but rates highly to make amends. LIGHTKEEPER (9) showed plenty of promise when a distant runner-up contesting a course and distance maiden hurdle two weeks back. Main danger. MILO LISES (11) represents top yard. Recorded a fair fourth in a 2m1f maiden hurdle at Tramore on testing ground two starts back. Shortlist. MILITARY ALLIANCE (10) looks interesting delivering initial hurdle outing.
