1:42 Cork Going Soft / Distance - 1m 7f

Pool Value: £0.00

A tricky one to call. Gordon Elliott runs three, all having some sort of question mark over them, though it may be best to side with KING OF KINGSFIELD, absolved of pacemaking duties here. Stablemates Fils D'Oudairies and Jigoro have to be respected, as does the reappearing Intellotto, but the biggest danger to the selection could come from Smooth Tom. [Alan Hewison]

No.	Selection	Form		Guide	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
1	Intellotto J J Slevin / J P O'Brien	5yrs / 11st 7lb 1714- Spotlight	140	7/2	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Intellotto 5yo is 2-4 hurdling, last run in this code when fourth behind Sir Gino in Grade 1 juvenile hurdle at Aintree a year ago; kept busy on the Flat last summer, winning Sligo maiden and good fourth in Curragh handicap best efforts; absent since August and may just need this.
2	Way Down South D King / G Scott	6yrs / 11st 7lb 09861P Spotlight	112	50/1	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Way Down South Point-to-point winner off the mark hurdling in 2m3f Limerick maiden at Christmas but pulled up in Fairyhouse handicap when last seen in February; appears out of his depth here.
3	Dragon Of Malta B W Harvey / P F O'Donnell	8yrs / 11st 2lb /- Spotlight		100/1	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Dragon Of Malta Fair Flat handicapper, five turf wins on all sorts of ground; very big ask here on belated hurdles debut.
4	Fils D'oudairies K C Sexton / G Elliott	10yrs / 11st 2lb -4P440 Spotlight	151	9/4	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Fils D'oudairies 10yo who won two Grade 3s at Tipperary in 2023; returned from year's absence at Christmas and well below his best in five outings, some admittedly stiff tasks; bit more spark when beaten under 9l in County Hurdle last time; regressive but could still hold his own in this company and well treated by the race conditions.
5	Jigoro J Smith / G Elliott	6yrs / 11st 2lb P0-220 Spotlight	148	6/1	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Jigoro Hasn't added to Navan maiden win of 16 months ago but some fair efforts in small-runner conditions hurdles; tame handicap effort last time in January though; bit to prove.
6	King Of Kingsfield D J Gilligan / G Elliott	7yrs / 11st 2lb 4-2255 Spotlight	156	6/4	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
King Of Kingsfield Sole hurdles win came in Leopardstown maiden late 2023 but has run to a smart level of form in Graded company on several occasions; employed as a pacemaker in recent starts but running on his own merits here and big player.
7	Smooth Tom C M Quirke / A Slattery	6yrs / 11st 2lb 50-2U7 Spotlight	140	17/2	1st	2nd	3rd	Any
Smooth Tom Very useful dual-purpose performer; won first two attempts hurdling in 2023, has come up short in Graded company; fine comeback third of 27 in Irish Lincoln last month, however, and that should have set hm up nicely for this; no surprise if he played a role.
