Form & Verdict
Kilbeggan bumper winner last April on good ground; fine runner-up efforts on first two hurdle starts at Navan and here in testing ground; well below that level upped to 3m at Cork when didn't jump well; questions now but the form to be a big player if back to best.

123-rated hurdler whose best form is on softer ground; unseated on last month's chase debut at Punchestown when leading; can't be ruled out if putting in a clear round.

Chase debutant; rated 123 over timber; won maiden hurdle here in February (2m7f, sft-hvy); poor efforts in handicap hurdles the last twice; related to useful chase winners and not discounted for top yard.

Form & Verdict
Won a point on good ground last year; has run with credit in two maiden hurdles on softer ground lately, here over 2m3f and at Cork over 3m; has finished both behind and in front of Fillyoureye in those runs; looks a reliable sort so can be involved.

Point-to-point winner took the runner-up spot at Punchestown (2m3f, good to yielding) and Roscommon (2m5f, good) before running below his best at Galway (2m6f, good); ignoring his last run he's in good form, he has a healthy hurdles rating of 110 and he has a point background, so there's a lot to like.

Promising fourth on hurdle debut but well held in two subsequent starts for Martin Brassil and little impact when switched to fences on handicap/stable debut at Warwick (2m4f, good) after a break; still early days but he doesn't look particularly well treated on that evidence.
