Made little impression on debut in a maiden hurdle (4023m) at Down Royal. Should be improved but place prospects appear best.

Did well to finish second two back in a maiden hurdle (3218m) at Gowran Park but could only manage ninth in a maiden hurdle (3822m) at Naas last time, arriving 21 lengths behind the winner. Hard to beat.

Returned from a layoff last time out in a maiden hurdle (4123m) at Leopardstown finishing sixth when partnered by today's jockey Jefferson Smith. That run was the first for the Ian Donoghue stable. May improve.

Form either side of a break has been average at best, and comes into this after finishing 132 lengths off the winner when resuming in a maiden hurdle (3218m) at Leopardstown. Better for the first up run but looking elsewhere.

Did nothing on debut when beaten 49 lengths in a maiden hurdle (4023m) at Fairyhouse at very big odds. Will be better for the run but place hope only in this line-up.

Wasn't fancied but returned from a 265-day spell on December 6 with a sound third in a maiden hurdle (3218m) at Navan, beaten 21 lengths. Key runner who is expected to feature again.

Produced an ordinary eighth first-up last start in a maiden hurdle (4425m) at this track two months ago. Looks tested without further improvement.

Made debut as a long shot in a maiden hurdle (3922m) at Clonmel and was comfortably beaten. Others looks better placed this time.

Lightly-raced five-year-old back from a brief spell. Unplaced on debut then finished eighth at the latest appearance in a bumper (3319m) at Galway, beaten 40 lengths. Others are preferred.

Was unplaced two back in a maiden hurdle (3419m) at Cork then again missed out in a maiden hurdle (3218m) at Leopardstown last time. Not sure he is up to this.

Six-year-old gelding which has shown little to date in three runs, the latest a well beaten 11th in a maiden hurdle (4023m) at Fairyhouse. Prepared to risk here on recent form.

Resumed after a spell last start with a modest fifth in a maiden hurdle (3822m) at this track. Before that first-up run he made the move to the Charles Byrnes stable. Can find winning form this time.

Returns after a brief layoff. Last appeared when he finished eighth in a maiden hurdle (3218m) at Gowran Park two months ago, that effort coming on the back of a placing on debut 221 days earlier. Sure to make his presence felt.

Two runs this prep have been moderate. Kicked off with an unplaced effort in a point to point (4828m) at Dromahane P2p then clocked-in ninth last start in a maiden hurdle (3218m) at Limerick. Looking to others.

Returned from a spell last start with a modest fifth in a maiden hurdle (3218m) at Naas. Strips fitter and pay to follow up.

Will start at long odds here after two average efforts of late. Overlooking on recent form.
