Going - Soft, Yielding in places (Hurdle); Soft (Chase). Overcast

Formscan By Alan Magee - POLITICISE won the valuable Lartigue Hurdle at Listowel back in 2020 and held a career high rating in the mid-130s. The Camelot gelding is bidding to end a long losing run but has been placed on a number of occasions since including at the recent Leopardstown Christmas Festival when third to Music Of Tara. A reproduction of that form should see him go close. Butty O Brien just came out best in a tight finish at Navan last time while others to consider include American Money, Crafty Gael and Circus Act. Junot steps up in trip after being placed here just before Christmas while stablemate Pana To Milan reverts from fences and also has a significant jockey booking.
