11st 4lb |
Maiden hurdle winner at Tramore (2m6f) in May; posted a good Tramore novice run last month but not as good in a Killarney handicap since so has to rebound down in trip. |

Got a 9lb hike for winning a Tramore maiden hurdle in May; well held in three novice hurdles since; 4lb wrong on his handicap debut and probably safe to look elsewhere. |

Won a maiden hurdle over 2m6f here in May; a decent run in a Downpatrick novice since but was beaten 32l there last time; has a lot to do in this company on these terms. |

Maiden shaped like he'd improve plenty for the run when a respectable 11.5l fifth of 16 over C&D, under a positive ride, on his return from a break two weeks ago; interesting. |

Best maiden run came over 2m4f at Punchestown on nice ground; no impact over 2m on handicap bow on heavy at Navan when last seen in November; worth a market check moving up in trip on better ground. |

Maiden has been placed a few times but has to bounce back from two poor runs; the new cheekpieces need to work. |

Maiden was only beaten 4l in third in a 2m Punchestown handicap in January; stumbled halfway when was poor at Newbury since; is a player if bouncing back. |

Beaten out of sight on Kilbeggan bumper debut; fell at the fourth at Roscommon in a maiden hurdle last time at 150-1 (2m4f, good); unlikely to be involved. |

Modest form in sole completed point-to-point; weakened quickly when pulled up at Ballingarry in May; half-brother to two hurdles winners but probably best watched on Rules' debut. |

Solid placed maiden form on good ground in the first half of last season; struggled in testing conditions later, including on handicap debut at Cork in December; 33-1 winner at Killarney last month on first run after a break, runner-up Koeur A Prendre has advertised the form; deserves to be a leading fancy. |

Beaten at short odds on debut in a bumper at this venue two years ago; won over hurdles at Roscommon last summer after a break; runner-up in a Listed novice here later that month, beaten by the subsequent County Hurdle second Sticktotheplan; ran out of steam on his reappearance in a 3m1f chase at Punchestown last month; likely to be at peak form now. |

Galileo gelding out of the very talented Vroum Vroum Mag was beaten at short odds in a bumper at last year's festival and absent until ready winner of 2m5f Roscommon opportunity maiden hurdle early this month, tending to jump left; back in trip here and part of a really strong Willie Mullins' team here. |

Got off the mark on his only start for John McConnell in a handicap hurdle at Wexford in March; sold for £29,000 at Goffs UK since and makes his stable debut here; has shown preference for cut in the ground but is clearly of interest. |

Maiden was just denied in a Gowran handicap last time when finishing 14l in front of Harty Cup, though that one has improved since; should run well off 4lb higher for a new yard. |
