REBEL FITZ makes his hurdling debut after opening victories here and at Galway followed by an excellent run in a Grade 2 bumper at Leopardstown. He could be a useful prospect over timber and may once again relegate Worldly Wise to the runners-up bench as the latter continues to find one too good. Winning point-to-pointer Fordementor is interesting on his debut under Rules while Rudi Tuesday once looked a very nice prospect and his yard know how to bring one back after a long absence. Lime Tree Valley has run very well in two starts on the Flat this season and his pace could be all important in the finish here.
