Jupiter Du Gite (G)
[HT]
Headstrong sort has been given a chance by the handicapper and produced his best effort of the campaign fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Navan (21.8f, heavy) 25 days ago. Has good chance on pick of form with good-value claimer aboard.

Priory Park (G)
Value for extra when making successful return to hurdling on stable debut at Ballinrobe (22f, soft) in September. Respectable effort back over fences when fourth of 16 in handicap chase at this course (25.3f, good to soft) 75 days ago. Ca…
