Howwoulduno has ability but also a temperament problem as he demonstrated at Down Royal last time when shooting Barry Geraghty out of the saddle at the start. Graham Watters has partnered him to victory in the past so he could be worth a bet in-running if deciding to race. It was only a poor maiden that Lo Siento won at Galway but he did it nicely, jumping well and finishing full of running. He makes his handicap debut and Davy Russell will ensure he gets competitive but this looks one for Tony Martin and Ruby Walsh. LIVING NEXT DOOR stays much further than this as he showed when a close fifth over fences at the Cheltenham Festival. He can revert to hurdles on a 21lb lower mark and can make a successful transition. Harvey Logan appeared to be suited by stepping up to 2m3f at Naas but soft ground will bring his stamina into play and he rates a threat. Luddsdenene alternates between hurdles and fences and has been in winning form in both so he can go well with his low weight.
