Dual hurdles winner got off the mark chasing around here at the fifth attempt back from a break on handicap debut over 3m in November (soft); pulled up after a bad mistake at Cork 19 days later but appeared to have few excuses for his 28l seventh at Navan last time (3m, soft to heavy); capable of getting involved on his best day. |

2-10 over hurdles and rated 10lb higher in that sphere; tailed off in all four starts in beginners' chases including two here; likely best watched on return from 264 days off. |

10st 5lb |
Won a handicap hurdle on first start for this yard at Punchestown in February; won a beginners' chase for Liam O'Brien in October 2024; has run well here before but well beaten last twice over timber and this looks too demanding; cheekpieces go on. |

Won Limerick beginners' chase for Liam O'Brien last season; two good runs for Declan Queally this term before breakthrough hurdles win on yard debut at Punchestown on Wednesday, getting the better of the front-running second (pair 17l clear of third-placed Ontheropes) late on over 3m1f (soft); quick return under mandatory 7lb penalty and bold follow-up bid expected. |

11st 7lb |
Winner of Tramore beginners chase (2m5f, soft); bounced back after a couple of underwhelming runs when beaten a neck off 2lb lower mark at Tramore two starts ago; probably did too much too soon at same track lto; one of the more likely contenders; stays this trip. |

12st 6lb |
Scored over fences for Shark Hanlon in August 2025 but lost his way subsequently; back to his best on his second start for his current yard when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last Tuesday; shouldered with a 7lb penalty but will be suited by the step up in trip and holds claims. |

11st 13lb |
Won over fences in Ireland last August (2m3f); his respectable stable debut was over hurdles (2m) and he was keeping on at the finish; wants further ideally but one to consider under Harry Cobden. |

Emphatic winner of a handicap chase at Downpatrick (2m3f, good) last August but he's generally struggled since including in three runs this spring; overall record is now 1-18 and he has something to prove back over hurdles for new yard; equipment removed. |

Maiden in all spheres after 33 starts, but was second at Downpatrick on penultimate (3m, good), 0.5l behind Fr Gilligansvoyge; sent off favourite up in grade at Wexford last time (2m7f, good), but was a modest third; in the mix on his Downpatrick run, but his record is a concern. |

Veteran produced his best effort for some time when a 9l third at Punchestown (2m7f, gd-yld) last month; career low mark now but hasn't won over fences since 2021 and this ground may be a shade soft for him. |

Both his chase wins have come at this track over 3m2f on better ground; two runs since returning to action have not been inspiring, tailed off over hurdles at Punchestown and pulled up over fences at Roscommon. |

Dual winning chaser is rated 8lb lower over hurdles but is 0-14; this ground suits but may need this run to warm up for a summer campaign. |
