Won Galway 3yo maiden last summer and back to form in Sligo handicap (2m5f, good) last month, relishing longer trip to win going away under a patient ride; went down fighting at the same track 13 days later from 8lb higher; up another 1lb but respected. |

Beaten when exiting two out in a handicap chase at Wexford in June; hurdles form does not amount to much. |

Modest on the Flat; well beaten on handicap debut over hurdles in May but had some useful juvenile form and wouldn't be without hope should this new headgear combination trigger a return to that level. |

Modest Flat maiden but has run some fine races in defeat in juvenile hurdles against some smart rivals; not as good in a Grade 3 last time with cheekpieces on; this is easier so is one to consider. |

Second runner for Gordon Elliott; French bumper winner; made the breakthrough for current yard when taking six-runner Fairyhouse contest (16.5f, heavy) by 12l on handicap debut; came up short off revised marks since; didn't enjoy good ground at Wexford last month; will need rain ahead of chase debut. |
9/1 |

French bumper winner has never raced on better than yielding to soft; made the breakthrough for his current stable when taking a six-runner Fairyhouse contest by 12l on handicap debut; came up short off revised mark in Listed handicaps at Fairyhouse and Punchestown towards end of last season; ground a concern for return. |

French bumper winner; 4yo won easily on handicap bow at Fairyhouse in February (16.5f, heavy); came up short off 14lb higher back there on latest when 1lb wrong and similar story here; would probably prefer softer ground. |

Has had a busy time since sent hurdling last August; three wins include two over 2m at this venue, including in a handicap with this rider aboard; form has been uneven; bounced back from a dismal Fairyhouse run when second at Navan, again for this rider. |

Limited on the Flat and big prices when tailed off on both hurdle starts to date; safe to rule out. |

9st 6lb |
Maiden winner as a 3yo ended the Flat season with a rating of 95; didn't really take to hurdling over the winter but has improved back on the Flat this year, easily winning a Curragh premier handicap winner over this trip in June; however, wasn't as good at this level at Goodwood since. |

Didn't really take to hurdling but she relished the step up in trip in this code when easily winning a 13-runner handicap at the Curragh (1m4f, good) in June; she has to prove that brilliance was no one-off but it was certainly an impressive performance and she could have a part to play today. |

Down Royal maiden winner last June (10.5f, good); ran well in 1m2f handicap here last October and just 1lb higher here; shaped like coming back to form when keeping on from the back over 1m2f here latest; bred to stay this far; could go well. |
