11st 4lb |
Killarney winner in the spring and finished a very creditable fourth of 20 in the Galway Hurdle (Thisistheway second, Gameball third); reverted to Flat to win Killarney amateur riders' contest last month and cheekpieces now fitted for hurdles return. |

Better known as a smart four-time hurdles winner; good recent form when fourth in the Galway Hurdle off a mark of 132, roughly the same ability as Samui; also a capable Flat performer but his 81 rating makes him 23lb inferior to Samui in this sphere. |

By far the most talented of these over hurdles (rated 140) and he jumped accurately before tiring on his chase debut at Kilbeggan over 2m4f; nowhere near as good dropped back to 2m (good) at Wexford on latest and questions to answer now. |

Smart five-time winner over hurdles and ran well in two useful handicaps in May; 3-1, jumped well out in front before tiring on chase debut over 2m4f at Kilbeggan; could be hard to beat over this trip. |

Killarney novice hurdle winner last October has run well in defeat at times since, notably Killarney third to Ragmans Corner, just okay Galway effort on latest; looks to have a bit to find. |

Won back-to-back hurdle races in August/September on good ground (including C&D maiden hurdle); creditable C&D fourth on seasonal return in May off 1lb higher but below that at Listowel next time (2m, yielding); okay fourth of seven on chasing debut here last time; remains 5lb higher than his last win. |

Progressive mare won handicaps at Ballinrobe and Kilbeggan earlier this term, and added a further win with career-best in taking 2m6f Galway conditions event early this month, produced late to win going away; clearly in terrific form, although drop back to 2m may not be ideal. |

Back to back handicap hurdle wins at Ballinrobe and Kilbeggan earlier this term; fine effort to finish a 2.75l third of 20 off 126 in the Tribes here last month; beaten favourite on the Flat at Tramore sole start since; mares' allowance and rider's claim bring her into the picture. |

Has been in the form of her career this season, winning handicap hurdles at Ballinrobe and Kilbeggan before finishing a close third at Galway; now rated 129 in that sphere so has to be respected on Flat debut over a trip that will suit. |

Flat winner is 1-11 over hurdles, having been successful in a Leopardstown maiden hurdle in March (2m, soft to heavy); good runner-up finish to the smart Switch From Diesel in a Punchestown novice hurdle in June was his best run since (2m1f, good); makes chasing debut now and his hurdles rating of 115 gives him a shout but his recent runs have been a bit below his best. |

Leopardstown maiden hurdle winner (2m, soft) in March and runner-up to the smart Switch From Diesel in a Punchestown novice, his best run since; 2m6f may have stretched him last time, back in trip now. |

Dual winning hurdler but has been soundly beaten in three chase runs lately and lots more is needed from 5lb out of the handicap even with a capable claimer aboard. |

Two-time winning hurdler has finished well beaten in novice chases at Killarney (2m1f, gd-yld) and Tramore (15.5f, good); unproven over this far and forecast rain a concern, so probably best watched in first handicap chase. |
