Form & Verdict
Easy to make a case on his good form for Willie Mullins but the wheels have come off big time; asking a lot to stage a revival in this strong a race.

J: Alex Harvey

T: John C McConnell

Old-timer won five races for Willie Mullins and his second to Beacon Edge over 2m7f in the autumn is good form; pulled up when favourite at Leopardstown in March and same story when tried over the banks on yard debut at Punchestown; hood back on.

Form & Verdict
Bumper winner who is 2-5 over hurdles and would have had some say off this mark last time at Ballinrobe had he not come down late on (2m6f, good); remains unexposed and well worth considering.

Bumper and dual hurdle winner for Gavin Cromwell; okay in four Flat runs for current stable without threatening; handicaps need to bring improvement.

T: James M Barrett

Bumper/hurdles winner; has had bleeding issues; third over 1m4f at Dundalk in February, 0.5l behind Friary Road; unplaced in two turf outings since then, 0.5l behind Jet Setting Jim at Listowel.

OR: 128

Form & Verdict
Classy Flat pedigree and won over 1m4f in France (good); hasn't built on his odds-on success in a 2m4f maiden at Punchestown (heavy) but last time was too bad to be true and he's a dark horse on handicap debut, especially back on drier ground (weather permitting).
