T: Eoin Christopher McCarthy

Smart hurdler won four races in that sphere including in Listed company last year; pulled-up in a Grade 1 Aintree novice on return in April; quickly rebounded with a Limerick novice chase win over Le Coq Hardi and followed up at Killarney; already looks a better chaser and respected despite a double penalty.

J: G B Noonan

Top-rated of these over hurdles (133), winning four from ten; trounced his four rivals on chasing debut at Limerick in May (2m4f, good to yielding), jumping fluently and travelling strongly; that was a very promising first run over fences and he can make it back-to-back wins despite dropping back in trip.

Has made rapid progress since winning a low-grade handicap at Tipperary in May last year; secured fourth hurdles win at Listed level here in October (2m5f, yielding); Grade 1 level proved a bridge too far at Aintree last month; top-rated of these over hurdles; definite chance.

Rated 105 over hurdles but performed above that level when winning on chase debut at Wexford, jumping well; however, this is much tougher and a place looks the best she can do.

Back to form over hurdles in recent months, but she's a long way inferior to several of these in that sphere and it's late in the day to be going chasing; best watched.

In fine form; won at Tramore (2m5f, gd-yld) in April; another good effort off 7lb higher mark at Cork (2m3f, good); step up in trip a plus; career-best needed off this mark; due to run here 5.35 Monday.

Maiden hurdle winner is rated 130 in that sphere but lost his form after some poor jumping; didn't jump well when won on chase debut at Wexford either but can surely do better with that experience behind him.

Half-brother to top-class State Man made a winning hurdles debut at Tramore last year; ran a decent race behind stablemate El Fabiolo at Leopardstown in March; fading in third when falling at the last at Cork and poor jumping took its toll when pulled up at Punchestown; goes chasing now; has twice been scratched on good-to-yielding ground, which is a concern.

Dual hurdle winner got off the mark over fences at Kilbeggan over 2m4f and ran a similar race in defeat in a Galway Grade 3 since; the cheekpieces worn then are replaced by blinkers; is clear of these rivals on ratings and should take beating.

Two hurdle wins came on good in 2024 and he's 0-7 since switching to chasing but has been placed five times, best effort coming over this course and distance a year ago when second in competitive handicap off 133; bit disappointing as odds-on fav when beaten 12l 25 days ago but should come on for that and has an experience edge.
