Dual hurdle winner on good ground, never sighted on return from 544-day absence at Downpatrick in June; reverts to fences here having shown nothing in three attempts in late 2022 so impossible to assess on handicap debut; market likely best guide. |

Remains a maiden but has been running well in handicap chases since joining Gordon Elliott, third at Downpatrick and Tramore and sent off favourite when runner-up behind the reopposing Just Jacob last month; 7lb pull in the weights with that rival now. |

Maiden under all codes but two solid efforts in handicap chases, C&D third in April and only lost second late on over 2m4f at Downpatrick; faded tamely (unbalanced) at latter venue since in beginners' contest; return to handicap company to suit and one to consider. |

Five-time hurdles winner at 2m on decent ground, including on reverting back from chasing at Tipperary early this month, having been left in front two out (having looked likely winner); up 7lb but still some way off her career-high so obvious respect. |

10st 7lb |
0-47 under all codes, having spent the bulk of his career in Ireland; flopped badly when favourite for recent stable debut at Stratford (2m2f, good to firm) but tries a new trip and sports first-time blinkers here; no surprise if Dan Skelton finds the key to him soon. |

46-race maiden under all codes, including 19 starts over hurdles; runner-up at Clonmel (2m1f, yielding) in April but failed to build on that next time; makes stable debut for a leading yard and, though he has plenty to prove, it'll be interesting to see what they can do with him. |

Sole chase win came at this track in September off 93 (2m, good); recent chase runs do not provide huge encouragement and both her wins have come at shorter than this; in saying that, the handicapper is giving her a chance. |

Hurdles winner at this track in 2022 and also won a 2m Tramore handicap chase last season (good) off 3lb higher; beaten 21l here earlier this month in a race won by Crowsatedappletart (2m3f, good); needs to bounce back to form but handicapper giving her a chance. |

Dual hurdles winner with his latest win being a C&D victory in January last year off 87 (soft) for Paul Hennessy; best effort for current yard was when runner-up behind a well handicapped rival here on heavy in February; hasn't matched that effort since. |

114-race veteran, winner of 11 races; best known as a four-time course jumps winner; also C&D winner; most recent success came over fences here last October; well below best on his last three visits, years may be catching up, but premature to write off. |

Some decent placed form over fences last year, most notably when 6.5l second to Kyle Valley at Tramore (2m6f, yld) in handicap chase off 79 in May; proved he's in good heart when runner-up in point-to-point last month so he could figure. |
