Form & Verdict
Dual hurdles winner whose standout run over fences came when making all in 2m1f Killarney handicap in July (good); well below that form twice since, latest when modest fourth under similar tactics in Grade 3 Roscommon novice on Monday (soft); vulnerable conceding weight on likely soft ground.

Grade 3-placed over fences but a record of only 1-15; not at his best last three starts; an experienced type though and would have a chance if back to form.

Form & Verdict
Point-to-point winner and 122-rated hurdler; created good impression when making winning chase debut over C&D back in April (yielding-to-soft) but faded tamely (blew hard and signs of delayed recovery post-race) in Killarney novice following month; back from summer break with a point to prove.

Won over hurdles on stable debut at Navan (2m4f, soft) in January and creditable third in mares' handicap chase at Punchestown (2m6f, heavy) last month; there's stamina in her pedigree but today's step back up in trip isn't an obvious positive judged on racecourse evidence.

Form & Verdict
135-rated hurdler with winning form on soft ground; successful chasing debut in 2m4f Wexford rated novice in August when jumping soundly (only six fences jumped) to beat a 130-rated rival with authority; nice prospect and could play a major role.

Made hay in the autumn over fences, winning twice including a Grade 3 at Cork (2m4f, good) in November; close fourth in Grade 1 at Fairyhouse (2m4f, yielding) when last seen in early December and likely to come up short here unless spring ground stumps his rivals.

Bumper/hurdle/chase winner; 1-6 in this discipline; beaten 4.5l by Judicieuse Allen in a novice chase in December but had that stablemate behind when an improved third in a 2m6f Listed chase at Fairyhouse last time; this is her first handicap as a chaser and she's one to consider.
