12st 0lb |
Smart staying handicap chaser in his prime; has found a new lease of life, winning two hunter chases at Thurles (beat Lifetime Ambition by 9l) and Naas (beat Hunters Yarn by 4l); might have found the ground a bit too quick when finishing fifth behind Barton Snow at Cheltenham; could play a featuring part. |

12st 0lb |
Has always had some class about him and he went off only 11-1 for the Grand National two seasons ago; lost his way afterwards but he's back in the good books after winning two hunter chases and the RPR he posted at Naas last month (3m, heavy; fine on good ground) was up there with his best; with confidence seemingly buoyed he's a must for the shortlist. |

12st 0lb |
A good staying handicap chaser without ever winning one; twice placed in the Paddy Power at Leopardstown, fifth in the 2023 Irish Grand National, third in last season's Leinster National at this venue; third on point debut in November; responding well to a prominent ride at Thurles; 9l runner-up Lifetime Ambition (stablemate of Hunters Yarn) is a solid yardstick. |

12st 0lb |
Three bumper wins, once for this yard, twice for Willie Mullins; three wins over jumps for Mullins before losing his way; has prospered in points this term for his original trainer, winning three from four, the exception a Dromahane third when he made a few mistakes; no disgrace in losing out to Panda Boy at Naas; harder to overlook Gowran defeat |
