0-8 on the Flat; an improving hurdler having won at Kilbeggan 19 days ago (2m2f, good) and brings potential into handicaps; unraced over this far.

Some solid maiden hurdle form on good ground last summer; produced in good shape at Kilbeggan last month after a break; saddle slipped before the last, and he was worn down in the final strides despite his rider's best efforts; good run in the circumstances; leading chance.

J: Gavin Brouder

Stepped up on previous form to finish a close third of 15 in a 1m7f maiden at Roscommon; a bit below that level when favourite at Perth (2m, good) last time, finishing fourth; his penultimate run puts him in the mix.

T: C Byrnes

Bumper winner as a 4yo for former yard; 0-10 hurdling but just denied in C&D maiden a year ago; form this year not as good, fading tamely in mares' handicap at Galway last week; declining mark but still looks to have a bit to find.

J: Tom Kelly

T: C Byrnes

Useful form for previous yards; still early days with Charles Byrnes and perhaps went off too fast in maiden company at Kilbeggan (2m2f, good; favourite); often leads and dominating a field of this size won't be easy.

0-11 over hurdles; ran to a decent level last year, placing in three maiden hurdles over a range of trips on good ground; similar level when fourth at Listowel in May and shaped better than the bare result at Kilbeggan last month; okay C&D fourth last time; he's solid but vulnerable to improvers.

Made a flying start to his career with this yard when successful over 1m on stable debut on AW off 51 in January in a first-time hood; well below that level in two subsequent runs at Dundalk, and his two recent efforts over hurdles were not amazing either.
