SOLDIER IN MAY brings recent form to this having finished third at Castletown-Geoghegan on his debut at fortnight ago and he should step forward from it. Poppycon, King Gris, and Gaelic Pride are three horses that failed to back-up their respective debuts, but could get involved if bouncing back, with Poppycon having been sent off as the favourite at Bartlemy following a fourth-placed showing at Punchestown on debut.

Preview
This has a very wide-open look to it, and it may be worth siding with TELL THE TALE who finished fourth in a similar auction maiden at Borris House on his debut, a race that the potentially re-opposing Music Glide Away pulled-up in before going on to finish fourth at Stradbally. In a race like this, the newcomers will also be worth a market check.

GOOD CODY has finished second in two of his last three starts, including when finishing second to a subsequent hurdle winner at this fixture last year when it was run at Ballycrystal. He looks like the one to beat in this on his return to action. Milan Forth has been seen more recently, having finished at Castletown-Geoghegan on his first start for new connections, whilst Calda House, Gale Force Jet and Uncertain Times are others to consider.

LIFETIME AMBITION won this race 12 months ago when it was run at Ballycrystal, and it kickstarted a season which saw him win four times before running a huge race in defeat to chase home Its On The Line in the Champion Hunter Chase at the Punchestown Festival. It is not an easy task facing him on his return to action with the likes of Ramillies in opposition, but he should show his class here.

Preview
CHAMPAGNE AVENUE has long shown maiden-winning potential, and this could be a nice opportunity for him to open his account. Of the dangers, Aill Dubh has changed stables since his latest track outing, but he did run well at Necarne last season, whilst Mister Romantic should step forward from his seasonal re-appearance in Castletown-Geoghegan, as a reproduction of his Stowlin effort would certainly see him good enough to get involved in this.
