One of two for trainer; second in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle on stable debut in April before a lesser bumper run; was happier back over obstacles when winning a 2m3f Punchestown maiden hurdle in June; must bounce back from a disappointing Galway (2m5f, good) effort last month, but Kennedy stays loyal.

Point runner-up was second in a maiden hurdle on rules debut before a lesser bumper run; was happier back over obstacles when winning a 2m3f Punchestown maiden hurdle last time; has to do more but is improving; tongue-tie on.

Finally got head in front after 19 attempts when landing Downpatrick maiden hurdle last month and has since followed it up with a novice hurdle and chase victory; needs to prove as effective on the Flat but didn't run badly in 1m3f maiden in April on ground softer than ideal; could be on a decent mark.

Has hit top form recently; followed up an easy win in a weak Downpatrick maiden hurdle (2m2f, good) with success in a Sligo novice contest (2m2f, good); his rating of 120 over hurdles is the best on offer here but he must transfer it to fences on this chasing bow.

Solid efforts in bumpers at Listowel and Wexford last autumn, beaten a head on latter occasion, both over 2m; is likely to be well prepared for this return and has the stamina in her pedigree for this trip; a major player.

Had run well several times in defeat before finally off the mark 11 days ago in 2m4f Wexford handicap, appreciating good ground to win going away in beating a strong favourite (pair clear); 5lb rise looks quite lenient, so major player if ground remains in his favour.

0-12 over hurdles but has run well in defeat, including when runner up in a 2m1f (good) maiden hurdle here; went close off 3lb higher at Galway in October; wide trip when midfield over C&D (good) on latest; not discounted off 2lb lower.
