THECOMPANYSERGEANT has made a promising start over hurdles and having finished runner-up in a Grade 2 at Fairyhouse back in April (admittedly well beaten), Denis Hogan's 6-y-o is taken to go one better and double his tally over hurdles. Willie Mullins fires plenty of darts and Maze Runner could emerge as his best chance, while Ilikedwayurthinkin and Watch The Weather are another couple worth considering.
