Three-time winning hurdler has clearly had his issues; unseen since tailed off in a Tipperary Grade 3 in October 2024; has the rating to be a big danger but questionable whether he can run to it after such a long time away. |

Capable handicap hurdler back in the day (won here in 2022 over 2m4f); series of absences in recent years, most recently good run in the circumstances when hampered by loose horse in finishing fourth in 2m4f Ballinrobe handicap chase in May; first run over hurdles in three years (11lb lower here). |

Capable handicap hurdler back in the day and has won over hurdles and fences here; couldn't cut it in novice company after chase debut win here in 2024 (after longer layoff); nice run on the Flat when last seen in August and, given his track record, this race may have been the plan for a while. |

Both hurdle wins in Ireland during 2019; thereabouts in handicaps at 2m and 2m4f for this yard in the second half of 2023 and was still travelling well enough when falling three out at Hereford (2m3f, good) this May; unproven beyond 2m4f but has the ability to figure; one of two runners for the stable. |

Dual-purpose; stayed on well over 14.5f on latest Flat start at Killarney off 79; is 2lb wrong at the weights here but talented claimer takes off 5lb; won a maiden hurdle on his sole previous start at this track; wide draw to contend with but he's unexposed in this sphere and he could run a big race. |

Bumper/hurdles winner is lightly raced for his age; off the mark over fences here in March; held when completing in handicaps and that looked likely to be the case again when falling three out at Killarney, but handles heavy and you'd be slow to rule him out. |

Smart performer in his younger days, second in the 2020 Royal Bond as a second-season novice hurdler; raced exclusively on Flat last year after County Hurdle fall; disappointing apart from good Galway amateur handicap fifth; entitled to need run at Cork last month; hard to be sure how competitive he remains. |
