All three hurdle wins have come at this venue at 2m4f and 3m2f on decent ground; best run this year when just failing to get up over C&D last month (good); found the competition too hot at Galway; now blinkered for the first time after a tame effort here 13 days ago. |

All three hurdle wins have come here at 2m4f and 3m2f on decent ground; standout run this year when just failing to get up over 3m2f last month (good); tame Galway effort last week but has to be respected back here with such a good record at the track. |

One of three for trainer; off the mark when winning this race last year (good); nearly made it back-to-back C&D victories when beaten a neck on seasonal return in May (good, 11-1); up 2lb but he should come on for that run and O'Keeffe now rides for the first time. |

Showed very little in six starts for his previous trainer, including in two handicaps; took a step in the right direction at this venue on latest when fifth behind today's rival Cornmarket; ran out of steam late, should be sharper now and has prospects of turning the tables. |

Looked of little account in first seven starts but much improved performance when an 11l fourth of 16 off this mark at Kilbeggan (24.5f, yielding) last time; the drop back to 2m4f is a plus on that evidence; each way claims. |

10st 11lb |
Ex-Irish 8yo; didn't get home after racing too freely over 3m on stable debut in June but was evidently well suited by drop to about 2m2f (if additional yardage is included) when scoring at Market Rasen (good) last month; could easily have more to offer for new yard; must be considered. |

0-18 under rules but he was an easy winner of an Irish point in May; well held back over regulation fences at Uttoxeter (3m, good) last month but he took a strong hold and ran well to a point in that race; could benefit from this drop back in trip and it wouldn't be a surprise if he was in the mix. |

Took a step in the right direction when fourth at Sligo (2m2f, good); built on that when narrowly denied at Bellewstown (20.5f, gd-yld) on latest; nudged up 2lb but is 4lb below her last win and handles any ground; big chance. |

In excellent form this season, winning three times on good ground (2m4f-2m7f; once here); last month's clear second at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) was another career best but he's 5lb higher today and the forecast rain is a likely negative; goes beyond about 3m for first time; tongue-tie added. |
