12st 0lb

J: Eoghan Finegan

T: P E Collins

Irish challenger who has been contesting valuable handicaps back home, bagging one in new cheekpieces at Leopardstown during the festive period (2m4f, good to yielding); back at this trip (had tried 3m), it wasn't a bad run at Punchestown this month when a tongue-tie was added; hard to discount.

J: Eoghan Finegan

T: P E Collins

Bumper winner; off the mark at the eighth attempt over hurdles in a maiden here in November (2m6f, sft-hvy); followed up in a Listed handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (20.5f, gd-yld) in December; raised 7lb and pulled up in Listed handicap at the DRF on latest but 3m on heavy may have stretched him; could rebound dropped in trip; tongue tie added.

T: P E Collins

Took eight attempts to get off the mark over hurdles; won 2m6f Punchestown maiden in November and backed that up, again under today's rider, when taking 2m5f handicap here last month in first-time cheekpieces, making much of running (Saint Le Fort third, Wendrock fifth); 7lb rise for that makes this a lot tougher and steps up in trip.

J: Eoghan Finegan

T: P E Collins

Course bumper winner a year ago; solid form in maiden hurdles last winter, third of 21 over 2m4f at Punchestown and second of 12 over 2m4f at Punchestown; tailed off at Limerick in March; set a stiff task in a conditions event at the Punchestown festival; won when fresh here 12 months ago; big chance if he can run up to his 120 rating.
