Formscan By Mark Nunan - Bumper winner WHINNEY HILL made a promising start over hurdles when third to the subsequent Supreme Novices' winner Kopek Des Bordes at Leopardstown last Christmas. The Gordon Elliott-trained five-year-old, who wears a tongue-tie for the first time, made no impact in Grade 1 company in two subsequent outings last term but is back at a realistic level here and looks the one to beat. Sticwiththeprocess was touched off by a subsequent improver in a 2m4f handicap here in April. Now rated 114, he merits respect but this shorter trip may not be ideal. Khmer was second to a smart type in a Leopardstown bumper last season and is a hurdling debutant to note along with Thurles bumper winner Le Labo. %0A%0A%0A
