Naas form narrows Grade 2 chase to two strong contenders

Taking three against the field should suffice to get Pick6 punters through the opening maiden hurdle (1.50).

Raya Time is arguably the clear pick on form by virtue of a third place behind two likely Cheltenham contenders at Leopardstown, but it is a concern that he subsequently let his supporters down at Fairyhouse.

Bumper winner Behind The Curtain is the obvious alternative, and Gordon Elliott's once-raced Milan Native could not be ruled out with any comfort.
