Point winner; jumped badly when out of her depth in a novice hurdle at Galway last month; hunter chase form is not very encouraging but she is a relatively young mare with potential for improvement; starts off in handicaps off a low mark. |

Two-time winning chaser; last success came in a hunters chase at Fairyhouse in November 2023; hasn't shown a lot in point-to-points recently and has fallen and pulled up on his last two starts; others look more likely. |

Not a great strike rate but on song on latest when readily landing 3m1f Fairyhouse handicap last month in first-time blinkers; raised 12lb for that but still 12lb out of handicap here so plenty on his plate. |

Promise here on seasonal reappearance; failed to build on that on next four starts but signs of a revival when staying on for a 9.5l fourth back here (3m, heavy) on latest; blinkers could eke out more but he's 7lb wrong and looks up against it. |

0-20 under rules but stayed on from the rear to take third over C&D (good to soft) when back over hurdles last month and has now been placed on three of his last four appearances; no surprise if he's on the premises. |

Winning Irish pointer for Gordon Elliott; mixed form without winning over hurdles and fences for present yard, last time falling two out when in second in Perth handicap hurdle (3m, good); these conditions suit; each-way chance |
