Verdict

I'M SLIPPY made a successful start in an historically strong bumper at Fairyhouse in April and looks the most likely winner on hurdle debut. The betting should typically offer plenty of clues in this maiden, hurdling debutantes Family Getaway and Foxy Footprints both make appeal along with point recruit Harty Cup, while Market Ready is another to consider if the market expects better back over hurdles.

5	€70,000 3-y-o, Maxios gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler Al Kalila. Overcame inexperience to win a valuable 17-runner bumper at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) on NH debut in April. That's usually a strong race and he makes plenty of appeal starting out life over hurdles. 1st Pick 5 I'm Slippy (Ire) Jockey: Phillip Enright Trainer: Robert Tyner, Ireland J: Phillip Enright T: Robert Tyner, Ireland	97	-	-	-	90%

16	From a Flat family and shaped as if needing the run when fourth of 7 in bumper (7/1) at Punchestown (16.2f, good to soft) on NH debut 19 days ago. Entitled to improve for that and she's one to consider on hurdles debut. 3rd Pick 16 Foxy Footprints (Ire) Jockey: D. J. O'keeffe Trainer: M. F. Morris, Ireland J: D. J. O'keeffe T: M. F.
