Low-grade Flat handicapper whose four wins have come at Dundalk where he was in competitive last winter but poor run on turf at Leopardstown when last seen in March; hard to see him making an immediate impact hurdling. |

All four wins have come at Dundalk where he was in competitive form through the winter (latest run was a backward step); 0-11 on turf but there has been the occasional promise and could run well. |

Three-time winner here including this event in 2021 off 60 and when getting up on post over 1m in May off same mark; struggled a bit since but clearly has to be respected given her record here. |

It took him a while to get his head in front over hurdles but he hacked up in handicaps at Killarney (2m1f, yielding) and Tramore (2m, yielding) four days apart earlier this month; will need to progress again in this company but that's not impossible. |

Had a couple of decent runs in defeat in maiden hurdles in 2023; returned from a lengthy break when well behind at Galway (2m, good to yielding) but was a very easy victor of a Killarney handicap hurdle four days ago (2m1f, yielding); could have more to come carrying a 7lb penalty as long as this doesn't come too quickly. |

24-race maiden; struggling off basement marks towards the end of 2020; unfortunate to receive a big hike in the ratings for finishing fifth in a maiden here last month on his first run after a long absence; excellent run in the circumstances when second here a fortnight ago, just in front of Chateau Musar. |

Five-time Flat winner has scored twice over hurdles, one of them coming at this venue over 2m4f; middling Flat efforts on her first two runs this year, but better at Downpatrick back over hurdles last month when a distant fourth (2m6f, good); others preferred; 1lb wrong. |

Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when runner-up at Down Royal (2m1, soft, 7-2 fav') in final start for Gary McGill in January; unfancied and well beaten in two runs for new yard; may go well back in 0-100 company now. |

Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January off 3lb lower; weak in the market for Ayr run last time, weakening quickly to finish last of six finishers; in the mix at his best. |

Has won three times, including over C&D two years ago when trained by current handler, who has taken over once more after eight starts for Gary McGill; returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January and this Irish-trained challenger should be in the firing line. |
