Much better chaser, winning 3m4f Cork National last season (good); holds a whopping 30lb lower hurdles mark but unable to capitalise on it in three runs over timber this season; must be kept in mind considering his mark.

Much better chaser, winning 3m4f Cork National last season (good); unable to capitalise on much lower hurdles mark in August however; back from a break and still has to be kept in mind off this mark but trip looks on the short side.

Much better chaser, winning 3m4f Cork National last season (good); unable to capitalise on 25lb lower hurdles mark on return earlier this month at Ballinrobe but entitled to come on for that so has to be respected (previous winner here).

Gave a resolute staying performance to win the 3m4f Cork National last season; pulled up when contesting the Porterstown Chase off revised mark; fell at Punchestown in February and has been absent since; 131-rated chaser, 106 rating is tempting; market may reveal clues.
