J: Jordan Gainford

Maiden and novice hurdle winner for Willie Mullins in 2024; lost way for that stable and pulled up in a Thurles handicap chase on debut for this yard in December, his fourth non-completion in six starts; new headgear combination tried.

Rated 130 over hurdles; never remotely dangerous when third on chase debut and was towards the rear when unseating four out at Galway (2m6f, good; first-time tongue-tie; 25-1); others appeal more, including stablemate Uncle Pat who was a lot shorter in the betting than him at Galway.

Big Dee

11st 13lb

J: Darragh O’Keeffe

T: Eoin Christopher McCarthy

Useful bumper form in 2023, winning at Down Royal; hurdling career so far hasn't matched up, Limerick handicap third at Christmas (heavy) his best effort; pulled a shoe and suffered an overreach when pulled up in similar (but weaker) event in February; tongue-tie added now; can't rule out but may want it softer.

T: Eoin Christopher McCarthy

Useful bumper form in 2023, second at Listowel, beat a Gordon Elliott-trained favourite at Down Royal; fell on hurdling debut last May and failed to make much impact in three subsequent maiden attempts; third over C&D at Christmas suggests he is getting the hang of things (subsequent winner Marelly back in seventh); can win a race of this standard.

0-8 in bumpers and 0-4 over hurdles when based in Ireland but belied 200-1 odds when very respectable sixth of 19 in good-quality Naas maiden (2m, soft to heavy) on latest outing in December; should be okay on the much quicker ground here and new stable tends to do well with new recruits.

Second reserve; couldn't take advantage of a 7lb lower chase mark here last month when a close third of 12 (2m, good); returned to hurdles at Cork last time when a well beaten fifth (2m1f, good); she likes this track with both of her wins coming here so not discounted if getting a run.
