Reeled off a four-timer (three chases and one handicap hurdle) early last year; began 2026 with an encouraging second over C&D but soon beaten at Cork last month (3m); more needed but goes well here. |

Reeled off a four-timer (three chases and one handicap hurdle) early last year; second in two of his three hurdle starts this season; began 2026 with an encouraging second at Tramore; raised 4lb for that but still 8lb lower than his chase mark; strong chance. |

Runner-up in this race last year off 91 but remains a maiden; pulled up at Limerick last month; previous Clonmel second much more encouraging so don't rule out off this lowly mark. |

10st 10lb |
Maiden hurdler with uneven form; definite player judged on runner-up finishes at Limerick and Punchestown this season; the form of the latter has worked out well as the third Live To Laugh has won twice since; ran below market expectations at Limerick three weeks ago but big player if he takes to fences. |

Maiden with uneven form. second here in November (3m, heavy); next run here not at the same level and then unseated at Thurles; confirmed a liking for a stamina test when second over 3m at Naas last week; can pick up a race at some stage. |

Generally reliable sort since fifth to Finnians Row at Gowran last autumn, winning twice; went up 6lb for 2m4f Limerick success in April; in theory, has a slight edge over A Nod To Getaway on Tipperary running early last month. |

Won readily off today's mark at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) in November and is unexposed over staying trips, but was not firing on all cylinders when last seen in the spring; needs to have been refreshed by 108-day break. |

No reason to recommend on strength of modest efforts this year at Chepstow and Hexham (twice); however, the handicapper has cut him some slack, and he sits just 1lb higher than when winning readily at Carlisle (2m4f, soft) last November; best form is on soft/heavy. |

Point-to-point winner got off the mark under Rules on returning from summer break in 2m7f Ballinrobe handicap chase in September (soft) and solid third at Killarney following month; runs well fresh so lack of a recent run not so much a concern. |

Sole win from 28 hurdling attempts in 2m Cork handicap nearly three years ago; pick of recent form when second there over 2m4f (good) in October, heavy ground probably didn't suit here on latest; on a fair mark and better ground to suit so don't rule out. |

1-27 over hurdles, the win coming over 2m on soft to heavy at Cork in April 2022; back to back decent runs in October-November, including over this C&D but both runs came on good ground; not as good in two runs since but he handles testing ground; not discounted. |
