Flat maiden; won a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in 2024 when with John McConnell; down the field in two runs for this stable; seemed to be well fancied for a similar race to this at Roscommon on the first occasion; blinkered now after a poor hurdle run. |

Flat maiden won a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in 2024 when with John McConnell but pulled-up next two hurdle runs; never involved on debut for this yard back on the Flat last time but can do better. |

Flat and hurdles winner in Britain made a modest start for this yard in a Clonmel handicap hurdle in April and has been off since; can only be watched in first-time blinkers unless the market speaks. |

Kilbeggan maiden hurdle winner two years ago for Liam O'Brien; consistent this year but keeps finding one too good; hold-up horse and likely to need a bit of luck in running; could get into the frame. |

11st 8lb |
Winning hurdler for Joseph O'Brien; took a step forward in his headgear combination when a solid third in a handicap hurdle at Killarney two weeks ago; this is more competitive again but has a squeak if he can improve again. |

10st 8lb |
Sent off at just 9-2 on return from mammoth absence in a handicap hurdle here 16 days ago (16.5f, good) and denied only by a neck; capable off this mark over fences but the 'bounce' factor has to be a concern and has fallen both previous chase runs at this venue. |

Downpatrick handicap hurdle winner off 89 in 2024 (2m2f, good); signed off his time with Paul Flynn with a poor effort at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft) when last seen in February last year; mammoth absence to overcome in a first-time tongue tie. |
