J: Conor Ring

Won Clonmel handicap (2m4f, soft) just over a year ago but has looked out of sorts on all four hurdle/chase starts for new stable since the autumn, and it takes a leap of faith to support him here.

Won Clonmel handicap (2m4f, soft) a year ago; well beaten over hurdles on seasonal/stable debut in October and pulled up in two subsequent chaes; may yet come good for Evan Williams but has a lot more to prove than some of these; tongue-tie added.

Had struggled for form before winning his second start over fences quite convincingly at Wexford (2m3f) last month and easily followed up off 5lb higher at this course; returns to hurdling off 19lb lower mark compared to chase rating; must have a big chance.

Off the mark at the 15th attempt at Punchestown last month (2m4f, soft), making all and scoring by 0.5l; the runner-up, third and fifth have all won since; 8lb higher but should still make another bold bid.
