Two-time winner over hurdles and stays very well; chase form is more patchy; looked like being involved when unseating two out in a 3m4f handicap chase at Leopardstown in March was probably his best effort; remote fourth in a beginners chase at Killarney last month; blinkers left off today. |

Has had six starts over fences and is rated 101; won a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse last December off 99 (2m7f, heavy); best chase effort a 5.75l fourth at Fairyhouse off 102 back in January; heavy ground suits and he's a contender in first-time blinkers. |

C&D winner and was in good form towards the back end of last year; however, pulled up a fair way out at Wexford last month and possibly best watched for now. |

3m Punchestown handicap hurdle winner off a similar mark in June but below that level since; little encouragement in two starts for new yard, pulling up on soft ground then well beaten (46l) at Stratford; has plenty to prove on current evidence. |

Beat a big field at Punchestown (3m, good to yielding) last June but mostly well held afterwards and was sold for £1,200 in November; soft ground may well have been against her when pulled up at 125-1 on stable debut in January, but others have more pressing claims. |
