Followed up a handicap hurdle win on New Year's Day with a first chase success at Clonmel in February but lesser form in two runs since; his mark might be on the high side at present. |

11st 6lb |
Dual-purpose type; most recent of two chase wins came in a 2m1f Killarney handicap chase in August 2024; best effort last year when fourth in a 24-runner handicap chase at the Punchestown festival; not a bad run at Fairyhouse after a break; however, Come On The Lads seems to be the yard's number one. |

Dual-purpose type; most recent of two chase wins came in a 2m1f Killarney handicap chase in August 2024; best effort last year when fourth in a 24-runner handicap chase at the Punchestown festival. best form over shorter than this and on better ground; lacks a recent run. |

Five wins and ten placed from 40 starts (2-20 over fences); disappointing since finishing fourth in a competitive Punchestown festival handicap, with several of these rivals behind him; finished behind Gaelic Arc (runner-up) at Killarney in July; remote sixth at the same venue last month when Gaelic Arc was pulled up. |

11st 4lb |
Course winner at 15.5f; seems best on heavy ground and scored twice in those conditions earlier this year, over hurdles at Clonmel (16.5f) and over fences at Gowran (19.5f); capable off this mark and rain would boost his claims. |

Has won three points and a hunter chase; best run since joining this yard when close second in Killarney hunter chase last May; big run after short break when fourth at Limerick last month in the mud; can go well from same mark. |

Sole win over hurdles came in 2022; some fine runs in defeat over fences since including a close third in this race in 2023; has been missing since February 2024 but has been given a chance by the handicapper; market strength could indicate his readiness. |

Has won here over 2m on heavy; no win since September 2021; not much promise on two recent starts but he has run well here a few times in the past and he won't mind if the rain comes; can't be fully discounted. |

Just 1-17 over fences and that 3m1f victory at Kilbeggan was in 2024; beaten a head at Limerick last year and a neck in Listed contest at Leopardstown in March, and has crept up the ratings as a result; another decent effort at Punchestown last time when Cobden got to know him. |

Sole chase win came in 3m1f Kilbeggan handicap in 2024 but career-best on latest when just failing to get up in 2m6f Leopardstown handicap in March (yielding-to-soft), his first run since August; should go well. |
