Difficult Decision

11st 10lb

J: James Duggan

T: Oliver McKiernan

Dual hurdle and chase winner has regressed after a decent comeback run in December from a long absence, so questions remain.

T: Oliver McKiernan

Veteran's two of four wins have come here, most recently C&D novice handicap chase in December 2022 (heavy); light campaign since, well held over C&D at Christmas (well-backed) and again twice since over hurdles; blinkers replace usual cheekpieces and opposable despite career-low chase mark and yard's recent return to form.

10st 8lb

J: Phillip Enright

T: Oliver McKiernan

Veteran has not done a great deal of racing; good effort when fourth at Punchestown (3m, heavy); out of money over fences at Limerick (2m7f, soft to heavy) and beaten 22l back at Punchestown last time (2m6f, soft to heavy); a fair bit to do at these weights.

10st 12lb

J: Phillip Enright

T: Oliver McKiernan

Four-time winner, including two over fences; pulled-up when last seen at Navan in March; probably best on softer ground and lacks a recent run.
