Returned from a 632-day spell last start with a win in a point to point (4828m) at Ballindenisk with this rider aboard. Before that first-up run he made the move to the Mark Oliver Quigley stable. Warrants thought.

Returns from a 438-day spell. Has started three times when fresh and has been in the money on each occasion. Kicked off last campaign with a solid third in a point to point (4828m) at Turtulla P2p. Capable type with an each way chance.

Easily accounted for last start in a steeplechase (4526m) at Limerick finishing fifth and beaten 33 lengths. Looks tested this line-up and others preferred.

Extremely good jumper who has strung together two wins over the obstacles. Added to the tally last time in a point to point (4828m) at Tinahely P2p. Hard to knock.

Was returning from a layoff last start when beaten 34 lengths into seventh in a steeplechase (4526m) at Limerick. Fitter and expected to go close this time.

Easily accounted for last start (4828m) at Cragmore P2p finishing third and beaten 18 lengths. Doesn't rate well enough in this field to figure in the finish.

Had a winning run broken last time out when second in a steeplechase (4123m) at Clonmel. Well fancied in this. Suited here and sure to go close.

Below best form in five runs this campaign. Needs to find best form to be any chance in this line-up.

Has returned in fair form. Placed when resuming two starts back in a steeplechase (4526m) at Limerick then was beaten 52 lengths into fifth in a steeplechase (4123m) at Clonmel nearly three weeks ago. Won't find this easy.

Has failed to make an impact recently, last time out beaten 17 lengths when fourth over 4828m in a at Dromahane P2p. Prepared to risk again.
