11st 12lb |
Won this last year off 7lb lower and some decent efforts in defeat afterwards; however, he might need this first run since August. |

Veteran rated 109 over fences, out of form when last seen in August, would be a surprise winner. |

Won a division of this last year off 92 and he's higher here as a result of being 13lb wrong; well beaten in recent starts. |

Added a second hurdling success over this C&D in June last year off 92 (good to yielding); reverts to hurdles now following several underwhelming runs over fences; time is ticking on but can't be dismissed. |

Some promise in maidens; fair third on handicap debut at Kilbeggan (18.5f) off 100 last summer but failed to build on that; midfield at Clonmel on return; others preferred. |

10st 9lb |
From top yard and knocking on the door last autumn; beaten a neck at Perth in September (3m, good) and a head at Galway in October when last seen (3m, yielding); just 2lb higher now and big chance if fit after a 199 day break. |

Has run well on two of last three starts; beaten just a neck at Perth (3m, good) on latest; has struggled in two previous runs on softer than good so probably needs the track to dry out. |

Point-to-point winner showed signs of ability in bumpers but her maiden hurdle runs below that, most recently seemingly not getting home in 2m3f Cork mares' maiden last month; back up in trip here for handicap debut. |

Veteran is 0-9 over hurdles; has placed on a couple of occasions but his best handicap efforts have come on testing ground; rain would boost chance but lacks a recent run. |

First reserve; very modest form in maiden hurdles; glimmers of promise in both bumper runs so could improve for switch to handicaps; check market. |

No show in maidens or when backed into 15-2 from 14-1 on handicap debut at Downpatrick latest but may have needed that after a break and yard has hit form; don't discount. |

Third in a bumper at this venue two years ago; has struggled in bumpers and maiden hurdles since that initial run; rider's 5lb claim and the fact that the stable had a winner at Punchestown offer some hope |
