Form & Verdict
Solid efforts when runner-up in juvenile maidens at Cork and Fairyhouse; confirmed a good standard of form when third behind the useful Nurburgring at Fairyhouse; Nara was 3l away in fourth then but should be sharper now; towards the rear when 66-1 for Grade 2 event at Leopardstown at Christmas.

145-rated staying hurdle, runner-up in two valuable handicaps at Aintree and Haydock in spring; second behind Gaoth Chuil in Flat maiden at Leopardstown before going one better over C&D last month; cracking handicap debut when beaten 2l in competitive race at Galway 25 days ago; 2lb rise fair and very much unexposed in this sphere.

Won 3yo maiden at the Curragh in 2023 but he hasn't run on the Flat for nearly two years and an ordinary strike-rate over hurdles in the meantime suggests he'll struggle off his current mark back at this game.

1-19 over hurdles, the win gained from the front at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) in April; below that form when fifth of six in recent 2m Uttoxeter handicap, though, and others in this field have much more potential.

Only win in 18 runs over hurdles was in a maiden on penultimate start in April, that after finishing a well-held third in a 2m4f handicap; latest run at Punchestown three months ago is forgiven (tried a visor) but he's unconvincing against some of these.

Form & Verdict
Won a Listed hurdle for unraced fillies at Auteuil last April but that form is of questionable merit; beaten 22l when fourth in a Grade 3 on Irish debut at Fairyhouse in December; may turn the tables on third-placed Eagle Fang; jumping needs to improve and has to concede weight to the geldings.

Form & Verdict
75-rated maiden on the Flat; switch to hurdling and addition of blinkers did the trick when he won readily from the consistent if limited Pigeon House at Gowran in September; dropped away from two out when 100-1 in last Saturday's Grade 1 at Leopardstown.

T: Noel Meade

Useful juvenile hurdle winner in 2023, scored again early last year; 0-4 on the Flat but shaped well on opening two runs on good ground; handicap debut and new headgear combination tried on first Flat run in over a year; yard has excellent recent record in this race so has to be respected, despite more obvious claims of stablemate Billie Frechette.

Is 2-8 over timber but yet to prove he's as effective at this sort of trip and arrives on the back of six-month absence; doesn't look well treated on what he's achieved in the last 12 months.
