Bumper winner last June; gained first hurdles win in good style at Ballinrobe (2m6f, good) on latest; the third has since won over fences; up 7lb but step up in trip is no problem; should go well. |

Bumper winner last June; 0-6 over hurdles but has shown enough to suggest he can win races; beaten 16l when fifth of 15 over 2m3f at Cork latest; shaped nicely over 3m in Wexford novice previously so longer trip here a plus; chance. |

Bumper winner (good) is 0-5 over hurdles; kept on for a 17l third of 13 at Thurles on handicap debut (2m7f, soft to heavy); respectable enough third in a Wexford rated novice hurdle last time when well backed (3-1); weakened that day, so perhaps this trip can help; not dismissed. |

This sort of trip looked worth another go when he kept on for fifth of 15 on stable debut at Hereford (2m, soft) in December; however, he was tailed off at Ludlow (2m5f, soft) recently on his sole start since. |

Vadamos gelding fetched 11,000euros as both a foal and a 3yo; half-brother to 2m-2m5f hurdle winner Ballygeary; dam unraced half-sister to smart 2m/2m2f hurdle winner Blue Shark; always behind on debut in Cork maiden hurdle in April, showed a bit more in this headgear combination in stronger Kilbeggan bumper last month so not to be ruled out. |

Decent bumper form and improved a bit on hurdles debut after lay-off to be beaten 1l into third by Figero at Kilbeggan 22 days ago for new stable, running on well; form of that can be questioned but he should step forward for that. |

Beaten under 20l in his two bumpers and again ran a decent race when a 21l sixth at Roscommon for his hurdling debut last August; makes stable debut now in a moderate race and his middling form puts him thereabouts. |

Close up in a 2m handicap hurdle at Limerick (soft to heavy; first-time tongue-tie) before finishing well behind on his chase debut back there 11 days ago when an early mistake didn't help his cause; could have a part to play if avoiding similar mishaps. |
