Did not finish the race two starts back. Finished fourth last time, beaten 15 lengths, in a hurdle (3218m) at Punchestown. Recent form worth overlooking.

Scored at Punchestown two runs back before a disappointing fifth last start in a steeplechase (3319m) at Newbury. Top chance on best form.

Safely held latest finishing third but beaten 12 lengths in a novice hurdle (3419m) at Punchestown. Rates strongly on latest and expected to feature in the finish again.

Returns after 11 months in the spelling yard. Opened the last campaign with a minor placing in a steeplechase (4862m) at Sandown Park, beaten 6 lengths. Overall first-up record reads well, with a win and three placings from five runs.

Two runs this prep have been moderate. Opened with an unplaced effort in a hurdle (4425m) at Galway then finished tenth last start in a hurdle (4224m) at Navan. Hard to fault on his best jumps form.

Returns from a break under the care of a new trainer. Doesn't win out of turn and is enduring a long run of outs. Likely to run well.

Clocked-in second two runs ago in a novice hurdle (3218m) at Gowran Park. Repeated the dose last time when second in a novice hurdle (3218m) at Fairyhouse, beaten 4 lengths. Best jumps form stacks up.

Easily beaten before going for a spell. Fresh run no better when eighth in a hurdle (3218m) at Thurles. Not expected to threaten on recent form.

Has not raced since he failed to complete the course in a steeplechase (4928m) at Limerick 10 months ago. Won't find this easy.

Two starts back. Contested a flat race over 3218m at Dundalk All Weather last time but could only manage to finish fourth, beaten 6 lengths. Confiedence looks to be down.

Resumed after a spell last start with a modest fourth in a hurdle (3218m) at Cork. Key runner - don't underestimate.

Seven-year-old mare who returns from a break. Wound up last campaign with a fifth on the flat. Resuming in tougher grade. Needs to find best to be competitive here.
