11st 10lb |
Bounced back to form when runner-up at Wexford in March but struggled twice since; not easy to predict and probably needs a career best chase effort to land this off joint-topweight. |

11st 13lb |
10-time winner, just one over fences and has been hit and miss in this sphere; decent second in a handicap chase at Wexford followed by a sub-standard effort in a 3m handicap at the festival here; best horse in the race and has a chance but just that bit vulnerable these days. |

Prolific winner whose last track win came over this trip at Kilbeggan two years ago off 127; won a point-to-point last season and wasn't disgraced back hurdling at Galway latest, staying on late over 3m (good); drops in grade here. |

10st 13lb |
Smart mare in her prime, rarely at her best since a Grade 3 course win in January 2021; obtained a career-high mark of 146 after that success, down to 135; needs to jump a lot better than when a remote last of four finishers in this year's edition of that Grade 3 event. |

Smart mare has won twice over fences, including this race in 2021, her last victory; hit and miss over the last year but is capable of smart form on her day, so can't be dismissed. |

Sole hurdle win came here; fairly consistent of late, including a 6l defeat in the Pertemps on his penultimate start and a 5l defeat at Punchestown last month; remains on a good mark and this looks a little easier. |
