GOOD TO BE ALIVE (8) is of obvious interest being a 6L winner on hurdling debut in February (2mf). Subsequently attempted G3 level and was ultimately well beaten in that Naas contest. This looks more suitable. CLOONAINRA (3) was G2-placed at Haydock earlier in the season. Sets the standard based on peak efforts though form has deteriorated. SARACEN BEAU (2) looked useful winning by 9L when delivering hurdle debut at Ayr. Form has worked out well. Changed yards following a subsequent disappointment. Major threat. GO GO CHICAGO (1) appeals as best of the rest.
