OBISPO (NAP) easily won over fences at Downpatrick and Tipperary but never recovered from a first-fence blunder on his hat-trick bid at Down Royal. He's shot up the ratings over the bigger obstacles but can race from a 25lb lower mark here and has to be the selection. Luddsdenene is another with a big weight rise to contend with but is another better handicapped over hurdles than fences, as is the youngster Sin Miedo, who is progressing with every run. Paul Carberry attempted to make all on Zigger Zagger over 2m4f at Punchestown and was in the front rank until finding no extra from the last. He's lightly-raced and won't mind the shorter trip so is one for the notebook. Glenquest was engaged to run over fences at Haydock yesterday so the other that catches the eye is Inesperate. Tony Martin and Ruby Walsh are a winning combination and the ex-French seven-year-old, who has only had eight runs in his life, could be anything. Rebel Laker has shown ability in maidens and doesn't look badly treated for his hurdling debut.
