80/1
Fair hurdler. Fifth of 6 in minor event chase at Killarney (23.4f, good to soft, 33/1) 21 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Blinkered for 1st time, tongue strap on for 1st time.
4/9
Promising type. 11/10, career best when winning 18-runner novice hurdle at Listowel (16f, good to soft) 32 days ago. This step up in trip shouldn’t be an issue and he should have more to offer.
11/4
Promising type. Tongue strap on for 1st time, career best when winning 12-runner novice hurdle at Gowran (16.4f, soft, 11/4) on hurdles bow 23 days ago. Up in trip and he’s open to improvement.
7/1
Twice-raced winner under Rules. Won 5-runner novice hurdle (1/4) at this course (16.6f, soft) on hurdles bow 19 days ago, easily. Up in trip and his best days are surely still ahead of him.
150/1
Once-raced maiden. Slipped up in novice hurdle at Sligo (25.4f, good to soft, 17/2) on NH debut 2 days ago.

33/1
Modest hurdler. 1 win from 1 run this season. Didn’t need to improve to win 11-runner maiden hurdle (3/1) at Sligo (17.8f, good) 166 days ago, responding well. This is tougher.
