Heavy defeats at huge odds both starts over hurdles; similar story in three Flat runs; cheekpieces go on; hard to fancy.

Maiden under all codes in 33 races including 14 over hurdles but placed lots of times; some good chase runs lately (not last time) and should go well if back to best hurdles form.

J: Keith Donoghue

T: Gavin Cromwell

A long-standing 32-race maiden who has proved frustrating but consistent, finishing runner-up 13 times; 12 chase runs, beaten 5l into fifth at Wexford eight days ago in handicap off 112; one of his best efforts came over this C&D last year; capable of winning a contest of this nature.

0-3 in points and has the same strike-rate in both bumpers and on the Flat; he's by no means devoid of ability but needs to step up.

Doesn't lack for experience having run eight times in bumpers; best effort this year a 12.5l third at Bellewstown (2m1f, good) in July; below that level in three runs since and the forecast rain is not in his favour.

J: Rory Cleary

T: John C McConnell

Lightly-raced 4yo made mildly encouraging handicap debut over C&D in November but beaten out of sight when well-backed favourite here when upped to 1m4f the following month; clearly much better was expected so cheekpieces may help and stable among the winners.

Solid efforts on both bumper starts 255 days apart; latest when second (beaten 4.75l) over 2m3f here in April to a subsequent maiden hurdle winner; should go well if repeating that after another break.

Order Of St George mare well held on debut (too keen) in Cork bumper a year ago for Pat Turley, reappearing for current yard early this month at Downpatrick when never sighted in first-time hood; probably best watched for now.

Beaten 29l in a Cork bumper on debut a year ago but ruined her chance by pulling hard; reappears for a new yard with a hood added and can do better; worth a market look.
