Fair hurdler won Listowel maiden in September and not beaten far off 113 in Tipperary handicap in April; both of those runs were on yielding to soft so this ground might be quicker than ideal for chase debut. |

10st 0lb |
In good form last year for Shane Nolan and better again this year in cheekpieces, backing up Down Royal success with decisive 2m2f Leopardstown success last month under hold-up tactics; up an aggregate of 19lb so more needed from 2lb out of handicap but in such good form has to be respected. |

In good form last year for Shane Nolan, winning off 98 at Limerick and running well in defeat off revised mark subsequently; seemed well suited by good ground at that stage, but proved she handles soft when a stylish winner at Down Royal six weeks ago in first-time cheekpieces; reversed previous Cork form with Catchabird. |

Dual-purpose bumper winner for Willie Mullins; 0-4 over hurdles and shaped well when a 9l second in a maiden hurdle at Listowel last month on her third run for current yard; well-beaten on the Flat in sole run since but return to this sphere is a plus; sets the standard with a rating of 104 and should be in the mix. |

Maiden after 16 runs under all rules; back after an absence with two runs over the summer, the best of which was a fifth in a Wexford h'cap chase; needs his best back over hurdles. |

Returned from a lengthy break to make stable debut at Downpatrick 9 days ago when fifth of 11 (2m2f, good) after leading at two out; entitled to improve from that but majority of hurdles form is not great; needs to improve on chasing debut; trainer also runs Figurehead. |

Finally off the mark at 19th attempt over hurdles when landing 3m Punchestown handicap a fortnight ago (good), making all in beating Ballinaboola Gold 1.5l (pair clear); 6lb rise for that and meets that rival on 3lb worse terms. |

Heavily raced since winning easily for this rider here last October; won again at Dundalk the following month; unplaced on his next six Dundalk starts before hinting at a return to form in two outings at the Curragh; very closely matched with Miss Americana on running here 13 days ago; definite chance. |
