J: Sam Ewing

T: Gordon Elliott

One of four for trainer; two-time Flat winner and maiden hurdle winner; creditable efforts in his last three handicaps, a 2l runner-up at Navan (2m5f, heavy) before staying on for a modest fourth in a Listed contest at Navan when 3lb wrong (3m1f, soft to heavy); third at Limerick last time when he could offer no more close home (3m, soft to heavy); can go well again but Kennedy chooses another.

J: Jack Kennedy

T: Gordon Elliott

Won a Gowran maiden (2m, soft) in March; has failed to fire in four starts since, twice coming up short in handicaps; best efforts have come on soft ground; probably needs rain.

10st 11lb

T: Gordon Elliott

First reserve; French Flat winner; won a Gowran maiden hurdle in March (2m, soft); beaten 22l on handicap debut at Aintree in April and this trip seemed to stretch him in a rated novice at Clonmel; others preferred.

J: Jake Coen

T: Gordon Elliott

Flat winner in France and added a soft-ground maiden hurdle at Gowran in March, after which he finished eighth of 17 in a handicap at Aintree's Grand National meeting; it was a useful rated hurdle in which he was beaten just under 10l last week at Wexford and the good ground was perhaps livelier than he prefers; unraced over this trip but stays 2m4f; major player.

11st 7lb

J: Sam Ewing

T: Gordon Elliott

Flat winner in France; made it fourth-time lucky in maiden hurdles when comfortably landing odds at Gowran (2m, soft) in March but didn't count in much more competitive Aintree handicap following month on quicker ground; remains relatively unexposed hurdling and rain will help his cause.
