11st 9lb |
Runner-up in 2m6f handicap at last year's festival before winning 2m2f maiden at Downpatrick (yielding); has struggled a bit since in handicaps and others look better handicapped right now. |

Point and bumper winner added a hurdles win at Downpatrick in September (2m2f, yielding); creditable return to action at Punchestown earlier this month when seventh of 24 (2m, yielding), shaping as though he would improve; not ruled out. |

Dual Flat winner was a good second of 15 on hurdles bow at Downpatrick in September (2m2f, yielding) and would have made the winner work for it if not unseating his rider at the last at Tramore in April (2m, soft); of concern is that the worst of his three hurdle runs came over C&D in October when a 21l sixth of 13 but could go well; well beaten on Flat when last seen. |

11st 12lb |
Cosy Ffos Las winner (2m4f, good to soft; from 2lb lower); it isn't easy to quantify that form, but she ran as well (if not slightly better based on RPRs) when runner-up in returning cheekpieces at Uttoxeter latest; back up in trip with Rian Corcoran's services retained; chance. |

Breakthrough winner in five-runner handicap at Ffos Las (2m4f, good to soft) in May and she was in contention when brought down three out at Worcester (extended 2m4f, good) last month; both were under Rian Corcoran; cheekpieces (tried three runs back) return; one to consider. |

Dual-purpose maiden went closest to scoring when just denied in a 2m6f novice handicap here last October (yielding) off 1lb higher; absent since December but on a nice mark and any market support could be significant, although drop in trip could be an issue. |

Rated 69 on the Flat; built on a middling hurdles debut at Listowel to finish an 8l fourth of seven at Down Royal when running too keenly and fading late on (2m4f, good to firm); return to this distance may suit and not totally ruled out. |

Ran one of her best races on stable debut/second handicap start back from a break at Cork (2m4f, good) when keeping on steadily for fourth; always in rear when pulled up at Kilbeggan last time; tongue tie goes on after that disappointment and not ruled out if it has a positive effect. |
