J: Jonjo O’Neill Jr

T: W P Mullins

Three-time Grade 1 winner as a novice hurdler, including twice last spring, and he began his chasing career in promising style with two wins this winter; there have since been significant reverses when well beaten at Cheltenham and falling at Aintree, both in Grade 1s over about 3m, but he'd previously suggested a strength in stamina which gives this test some appeal.

J: Paul Townend

T: W P Mullins

Has finished behind Stellar Story at the last two Cheltenham Festivals but was hindered by being pestered up front in latest; otherwise a smart stayer who retains the potential to land a top prize over fences, having been a three-time Grade 1 winner as a novice hurdler, including on this card 12 months ago; remains of major interest.

J: Danny Mullins

T: W P Mullins

Won three Grade 1 novice hurdles last season, including on good to yielding ground at Punchestown, and third in the Albert Bartlett here; jumped well and stayed on stoutly when winning his more recent start over fences in Grade 3 at Naas (3m1f, heavy) in January; likely to prove Ballyburn's main challenge, but the stiffer the test the better for him and spring ground may not help.
