Won a valuable 2m handicap here in 2023 and won over fences after; solid runs at Wexford and Bellewstown lately, with the latter run looking better after the win of Putapoundinthejar in the Galway Hurdle; can run a sound race if staying. |

Point and bumper winner; 2-10 over hurdles; poor strike rate as a chaser, 1-22; has been out of form over jumps; however, he produced a fine effort when third in a 1m6f maiden at Killarney in July on his belated Flat debut; could feature in improving a little from that. |

Reserve; far better known as a smart hurdler, runner-up at this meeting in 2023 and 2024, with latter race the 3m Grade 1; below form over jumps over the last year, however, and he looks poorly handicapped (particularly from 4lb wrong) judged on his results over fences. |

She'll find it hard to beat a peak-form Panic Attack and she was pulled up in the Irish National 16 days ago; however, she was running well in January, in a Grade 2 mares' chase at Fairyhouse (2m6f, yielding) and the Thyestes Handicap at Gowran Park (3m1f, heavy; albeit no match for the first two); no surprise if she bounces back with a good performance today. |
