Unplaced in two runs this preparation, both over the jumps. Finished eighth when fresh from a spell then was 10 lengths away in fourth more recently in a hurdle (3319m) at Tramore. Likely to figure on his best form.

Filled a minor placing two runs ago in a hurdle (3621m) at this track. Repeated the dose more recently when second in a steeplechase (3922m) at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths. Best form over the jumps stacks up well.

Returned from a 117-day layoff last start and finished 61 lengths back in 17th on the flat at Curragh over 2414m. Appeals back over the jumps and is among the each-way hopes.

Hasn't won for more than a year but ran a good race 40 days ago when fourth in a hurdle (3621m) at this track. Has ability and bold showing expected here fresh.

Gelding resuming after three years break. Showed little last campaign. Hard to recommend here fresh.

Has been well held since a win three starts back. Finished seventh, beaten 29 lengths, at the latest appearance in a steeplechase (4727m) at Ballinrobe. Struggling and looks tested again.

Returns for new trainer today. Worth keeping in mind.

Was returning from a 1025-day layoff last start when she in a steeplechase (4123m) at Kilbeggan. Tougher task this time.

Unplaced two starts back in a hurdle (3319m) at Tramore then improved last time when she finished fourth in a hurdle (3822m) at Kilbeggan, beaten 8 lengths. Will take stopping if anywhere near her peak.

Missed the frame two back in a hurdle (4023m) at Limerick. Bounced back last time to finish second in a hurdle (3822m) at Kilbeggan, beaten 12 lengths. Won't find this easy.

Missed the frame two back in a hurdle (3822m) at Kilbeggan. Bounced back last time to grab second in a hurdle (3520m) at Down Royal, beaten 3 lengths. Further progress likely.

Unplaced two starts back in a maiden hurdle (3822m) at Kilbeggan then improved last start when he finished fifth in a hurdle (4123m) at Bellewstown, beaten 9 lengths. Will thereabouts.
