10st 6lb |
Likes a stamina test, most recent win coming in 3m Listowel handicap hurdle over a year ago (soft) off 117; back from chasing when soundly beaten in repeat win attempt there last month so has it to prove now. |

Reverts from chasing in a bid to repeat last year's win in this event; only 2lb higher; ground will suit him better than on recent chase starts; worth considering, though his much younger stablemate Bitofajokelike seems more appealing. |

Maiden hurdle winner last year disappointed in that sphere at Galway and tried chasing at Tramore; was a respectable third over 2m6f behind a now 128-rated rival; still needs to improve. |

Runner-up on all four bumper starts; won a maiden hurdle by 10l at Kilbeggan last September; runner-up on handicap at Listowel festival; after a break, possibly needed the race at Killarney last month; pulled up at Galway; no chasing experience. |

11st 10lb |
Decisive winner of handicap chase at Wexford (25.5f, good) last July off 4lb lower; pulled up both starts since returning from a break, in the Ulster National and over the banks at Punchestown; this more suitable but others arrive in better form. |

Stays well and handled yielding-to-soft when winning a 3m2f handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe two seasons ago; however, seems best on a sound surface; won on good ground at Wexford last summer; absent since a 12l second at the Listowel festival. |

Won a valuable handicap chase at Listowel (2m6f, soft to heavy; handles good) in September when 6lb lower and kept on well to finish third back over hurdles last time; not entirely dismissed, though he is an 11yo now and does lack recent match practice. |

10st 5lb |
Won a Wexford handicap hurdle (3m, yielding) off 114 in April, his first win over timber in over four years; has failed to figure off his revised mark in two runs since; was a Grade 2 winner in his pomp for Nigel Twiston-Davies but that was a long time ago; would probably prefer softer ground and others are more likely. |

Well beaten on latest hurdling start in April and has performed well in only one of his four subsequent chases, when second in Kilbeggan beginners' event (2m4f, yielding) two starts ago; ought to be suited by today's move back up in trip but has some questions to answer. |

11st 12lb |
Punchestown 3m7f handicap chase win in April 2022 (good) remains his most recent under rules, but the first of two point starts netted him a last-gasp Bangor-on-Dee success in March; strike-rate of only 1-11 over 3m3f or more, but this would be easier than almost any of those. |

Won't fail through lack of stamina but this regressive 11yo never looked dangerous when well-held sixth over C&D last month and is out of the weights today; tongue-tie refitted. |
