Hurdle2m5f

THEMANINTHEBOOTS has shown consistent improvement since returning from an absence, finishing a keeping-on second at Sligo last time, and now looks well-handicapped to go one better. Technology remains a maiden but has been running creditably, notably when second at Wexford with the hood that's retained here. Big Debates could benefit from switching back to hurdles after disappointing over fences.
