Beat Hascoeur Clermont by 5l over 3m1f on good at Roscommon in June on debut for Paul Flynn and only 4lb higher than that day should he rediscover some spark in the new cheekpieces (was behind Bella Bliss the last time). |

Two-time chase winner, winless since November 2023; had been running poorly but ran better when beaten 10l into fourth at Limerick 16 days ago in first-time cheekpieces having been hampered two out; they're left on now and he's on a nice mark if he can build on that. |

Lost his form badly after winning the Cork National in 2024, but bounced back over 3m2f here (good) last time in first-time blinkers when runner-up after idling when leading (1.75l ahead of Je Suis); form of that race is questionable, but he has a notably low hurdles mark if he can repeat that effort. |

Much better chaser, winning 3m4f Cork National last season (good); holds a whopping 30lb lower hurdles mark but unable to capitalise on it in three runs over timber this season; must be kept in mind considering his mark. |

Won three times from the front (once over C&D) last season and lost out only narrowly in refitted cheekpieces at Plumpton (3m1f, good) a fortnight ago but this veteran is nothing like the force of old, and might find this race to competitive. |

Three wins in small fields this season (2m5f-3m5f, good/soft) and another good run when second of three at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) recently; however, there's a suspicion this 12yo will find today's race too competitive. |

Former C&D winner won at Down Royal off a mark of 109 in May; below par at Roscommon off 5lb higher subsequently and then pulled up here two weeks ago; hard to fancy after that effort and may need to drop back down the weights. |

Eight wins and nine seconds from 24 starts in points; too good for Ask D'Man at Stowlin in May; made a competent return behind the useful Wonderwall (a winner again since) and beat the useful Born To The Sea at Tinahely last month; 1-14 record over racecourse fences is a concern, but race-fitness should be an asset. |
