He Can't Dance (G)
[B1T]
Winless over hurdles but he got back on track in first-time cheekpieces when third of 21 in 3m listed handicap at Leopardstown last month. Blinkers go on now and he's the clear form pick.

Papagei (G)
Fairly useful handicapper on Flat but lost his form for James Ferguson. 80/1, hinted at promise on yard/hurdles debut when seventh of 14 in novice hurdle at Naas (19f, heavy) 21 days ago. Can build on it.
