FormscanBy Tom Weekes - Hurdling is a somewhat late vocation to SLIEVE BARNAGH but can complete a hat-trick under his 7lb claiming amateur jockey. A three-time flat winner, he was initially tried in maiden hurdles in 2021 and '22 but was seen to much better effect on summer ground recently and might defy his 10lb ratings' hike for winning at Cork recenty, as he competes in another winnable race. Spick And Span is a frustrating 14-race maiden and but has recent handicap form and should get involved. Vale Of Glory defeated Indulging into fourth when winning at Punchestown in May 2023 and is forgiven his latest pulled up effort (having blundered), although both are now long absent.
