Second runner for yard; course hurdle winner won at Gowran in January and ran well here last time; was poor when last seen over fences though, so questions to answer in that respect. |

Maiden was just denied in a Gowran handicap last time when finishing 14l in front of Harty Cup, though that one has improved since; should run well off 4lb higher for a new yard. |

Slow burner but has shown improved form since going handicapping and was a decisive winner at Clonmel last time over this trip; raised 10lb but could well be progressing enough to defy that. |

Good ground winning chaser is 0-19 over hurdles; ran well off this mark at Clonmel (2m4f, heavy) in January when a 0.5l runner-up; brought down at the third at Tramore in a first-time tongue tie (discarded) last time; others preferred. |

Won Downpatrick beginners' chase for Gordon Elliott last May; off-putting 0-18 record over hurdles, mistake at the last proving costly when runner-up at Clonmel (2m4f, heavy), made respiratory noise when pulled up at Limerick last time; tongue-tie now tried. |

10st 11lb |
Not much to shout about in maiden runs but career-best on second handicap outing last month when beaten 0.5l into second at Punchestown off 77 (2m4f, soft); 4lb higher now but must enter the reckoning down in trip. |

Modest form in maidens and handicaps for his previous trainer; more encouraging on yard debut in 2m5f Down Royal handicap in March when well backed and finishing third; flopped when favourite at Wexford; cheekpieces now as well a usual tongue-tie. |

Dual point winner is yet to score from nine runs under rules; claims on the basis of his neck runner-up finish at Naas (3m, soft to heavy); below that level when favourite here eight days later; disappointed in cheekpieces (left off) at Kilbeggan; solid chance if he handles the ground. |

Dual point winner; confirmed his liking for a stamina test when second over 3m at Naas (soft to heavy) last month; below that level when a remote third of 15 at Limerick (2m7f, heavy; favourite) eight days later; perhaps that came too soon; cheekpieces go on now and better ground should be okay based on his point-to-point wins. |

Attracted support down to 15-2 at Down Royal, let down badly by his jumping; much more like it when second in a 19-runner contest at Punchestown last time; has an edge over Laurie Blue on that running and holds a leading chance. |

Attracted support down to 15-2 at Down Royal last week; let down badly by his jumping; may do better, although it is hard to know what inspired the market move, since he has failed to reach the first three in 13 races over hurdles. |
