The Jet Away mare won a Borris House point-to-point in December and has been well held in her two runs under Rules — a Thurles bumper in December and then a Gowran Park maiden hurdle (2m, soft) last month. She was a 100/1 poke in that contest with Conor Stone-Walsh in the plate for his uncle, and while beaten a long way at the line, it wasn't devoid of promise. Ultimately, she may want a longer trip but, outside of likely market leader Qualimita for Gordon Elliott, this Mares Maiden Hurdle isn't overly strong and with the dead-eight runners, she might be some value to sneak a place at a big price. Rothwell mare can break through The Fast As Fibrus Broadband Novice Handicap Hurdle lacks depth, with three of the seven runners arriving here after falling or unseating on their most recent outings — Tell Nobody Nothin, Love Like This and Misty Milan. Philip Rothwell aims AVANDRA at this prize after a short break and the Getaway mare could be up to shedding the maiden tag. Her first five starts didn't offer much promise but her runs at Punchestown on New Year's Eve and in mid-January were more pleasing. She's back from her downtime off a lowly mark of 84 and stepping up in trip, which looks like a positive after those two recent runs. She finds herself in amongst rivals with a bit to prove and this five-year-old is open to improvement herself. Step Out can step up for Crawford Northern-based trainer Stuart Crawford is always worth noting with his runners in this part of the world and the Larne handler gets his share of runners from top owner Simon Munir and Isaac Souede, which is a compliment in itself. STEP OUT runs here in the Double Green and has the owners retained rider JJ Slevin on board. The Walk In The Park gelding managed just one win over hurdles but was placed in a further four of his seven outings. He has run well in small fields in four of his five chase starts, bar an early unseat at this track at the big meeting on St Stephen's Day. He was a Downpatrick winner over hurdles at 2m6f last summer and his stamina could really come into play now stretched out to three-and-a-quarter-miles. He's entitled to be very competitive on form from his current rating and, if the new trip does unlock some improvement, his chance is of the clear and obvious variety.
