J: Danny Gilligan

T: Gordon Elliott

Bumper and maiden hurdle winner is 0-6 over fences; ran well in a beginners' here in November but beaten 21l and pulled up in first two handicap chases at Punchestown and Cheltenham; others have more appealing profiles.

J: Jack Kennedy

T: Gordon Elliott

7yo who is lightly raced over fences and represents top Irish yard; went close at Fairyhouse in November on second chase start but his form has gone the wrong way since and he was soundly beaten at Punchestown last month in his first handicap chase; ninth in the Pertemps Final here last March.

J: Danny Gilligan

T: Gordon Elliott

Point/bumper winner who was sent hurdling last term, winning at first attempt in 2m6f Galway maiden but didn't add to that in seven subsequent attempts, just okay form in handicaps towards end of campaign (rated 131); yard have a more obvious contender here in Romeo Coolio.
