11st 12lb |
Bolted up in a weak Thurles maiden hurdle last time (2m6f, heavy); he had previously been well beaten in three maiden outings; makes handicap debut now and should be in the mix. |

Flat-bred brother to the trainer's hurdler/chase winner Inthenickoftime; has shown enough in big-field maidens of a higher standard to suggest he will be competitive here; best run when fifth in a 27-runner Navan contest won by Eliodam's stablemate Saint Baco. |

Career has been punctuated by long absences; decent effort at Clonmel last time (2m4f, yielding) when left in fourth; this trip could bring improvement. |

10st 8lb |
Career has been punctuated by long breaks; coped better than most with very testing conditions when third of four finishers at Thurles (2m7f, heavy) last month on stable debut; two less encouraging runs since then; hard to assess, makes handicap debut. |

Career has been punctuated by long breaks; coped better than most with very testing conditions when third of four finishers at Thurles (2m7f, heavy) last month on stable debut; tailed off here 15 days ago (2m3f, soft to heavy); others bring more pressing claims. |

11st 12lb |
From the family of Djakadam; there had been some alarms even before he fell midrace at Thurles (yielding) and was again a disappointing favourite back there in January, having taken a keen hold on the heavy ground; comes with risks but he's surely capable of better. |

E125,000 at three; from the family of the top-class Djakadam; faded tamely when 4-1 chance in a valuable sales bumper at Fairyhouse last April, a race in which three longer-priced stablemates reached the first five; favourite for a 2m maiden here on hurdling debut, ran very green early (tried to run out) and fell at the fifth; risky, but the bar is set low here. |

E125,000 3yo; first foal; dam unraced sister and half-sister to French 2m1f jumps winners, out of 2m1f-2m4f hurdle/chase winning half-sister to high-class 2m3f-3m1f chase winner/dual Cheltenham Gold Cup second Djakadam; may prove best of a Gigginstown trio. |

Nothing of merit in his three runs over hurdles; tongue-tie fitted after a poor recent run at Fairyhouse. |

Not a bad run when sixth in 2m3f maiden at Limerick in December but pulled up next time at Thurles; should be more at home here on handicap debut; the betting will provide clues. |

Not a bad run when sixth in a 2m3f maiden at Limerick on the most recent of four starts; 83-rated mare would be more at home in a handicap. |
