KHANMURJAN (NAP) was conceding 7lb when beaten under a length by Laura Bullion on his hurdling debut at Down Royal in August but reversed the form when runner-up on a return visit in November. The latter landed a tough race at Bellewstown on Wednesday so the form looks strong and Stuart Crawford's charge, who isn't bred for jumping, can take this before heading for better things. Dakota Beat is penalised for two bumper victories but made a promising return to hurdling over a trip too short at Roscommon last month. Politicise has been in action on the Flat and would have to be considered after a neck defeat by Instant Return at Punchestown in January. Gordon Elliott's newcomer Full Of Zandre has a fine pedigree for jumping and is one to keep an eye on.
