FormscanBy Alan Magee - JUNOT was generally consistent in handicap hurdles last season before opening his account at Wexford in May. The Mick Winters-trained gelding hasn’t really fired on his latest two starts but perhaps the switch to fences will prove the spark as he ran a cracker on his only chase start at Clonmel earlier this year. Joeswayornoway gained the latest of two wins over fences at Killarney nearly two years ago but gave some encouragement when reappearing over hurdles at Wexford while Finnians Row, Aliunde and Kate Ill Know are others to consider. Birdsandthebees has been supported on a number of occasions over hurdles including at Punchestown this summer and it will be interesting to see how she fares in her first chase.
