Burndown stepped out of this company to finish second in a Tramore handicap and that experience should stand him in good stead. But RUEBEN JAMES (NAP) won a point-to-point and a maiden hurdle earlier in the summer before making a very promising debut over regulation fences at Downpatrick and looks the one to be on. Tinos Tank is one to note despite an absence since February as he was a progressive hurdler but Penny Jane has been beaten a long way when runner-up in her last two starts, including on her chasing debut at Tramore last time. Rosie Alice was in good form over hurdles before reverting to fences at Ballinrobe and though not exactly shining her allowance should ensure she gets into contention.
