Half-brother to Gold Cup winner Inothewayurthinkin; 2m Punchestown maiden hurdle winner last season; poor in a trio of beginners' chases this season at large odds; better in a Limerick novice contest last time when a 4.75l fourth (2m2f, soft to heavy); Walsh rides Goraibhmaithagat. |

Half-brother to last month's Gold Cup winner won 2m Punchestown maiden on decent ground last May; lame when pulled up in Grade 3 at Navan; poor run on heavy when tried in a tongue-tie in 2m3f rated novice back at Punchestown in January; bit to prove but still early days. |

11st 12lb |
Two wins on the Flat, rated as high as 95 when with Sir Mark Prescott; a long way below that in a Flat event at Listowel a month ago; took well enough to hurdling in four outings between March and June, best effort when second at Punchestown in May; let down by his jumping at Downpatrick in September; good chance if producing his best on first-time cheekpieces. |

Maiden hurdle winner who hadn't offered a lot in handicaps until finishing second at Bangor when well backed (2m7f, good to soft); led two out there before folding late on and now goes in cheekpieces; considered. |

Gained a first turf win at Bellewstown on penultimate; well held off revised mark at Roscommon latest but has won six times here (including two C&D claimers) so could be dangerous back at this venue. |

Maiden was second at Wexford in July but was then pulled-up there and well beaten at Navan so questions now. |

Maiden's standout effort came when a 3.75l second on his penultimate start at Wexford (2m4f, good); failed to back that up on latest when pulled up; risks attached. |

11st 5lb |
Made it 4-6 for current when completing a chase hat-trick at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) two weeks ago; 8lb higher on this return to hurdling, but that was another easy win last time, and this strong traveller has been a big improver this year; key player. |

11st 7lb |
Made it 3-5 since joining this stable with an easy win at Sedgefield (2m4f) four days ago, when unpenalised for a similarly comfortable C&D success seven days earlier when beating My Cullen; thriving at present and commands major respect under a penalty. |

Ex-Irish 8yo who is 2-4 for new stable this season, the latter win gained in conditional jockeys' race at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) a week ago; did that fairly comfortably by 7l and avoids a penalty here; obvious claims. |
