150/1
Modest winner at 11f on Flat. Pulled up in novice chase (250/1) at Punchestown (22.6f, heavy) 18 days ago, tailing off early final circuit.
5/2
Easy scorer over hurdles at Fairyhouse (2m4f) in December. 5/2, badly hampered before unseated rider 3 out in novice chase (5/2) at Tramore (15.8f, soft) on debut over fences 28 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Well worth another chance.
50/1
Modest chaser. Sixteenth of 20 in handicap chase at Leopardstown (17f, good, 80/1) 34 days ago. Back up in trip. Remains a maiden after 24 NH runs.
33/1
Fair hurdler. 100/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (23.2f, soft) 9 months ago. Needs to hit the ground running now going chasing.
14/1
Fair hurdler. 1 win from 3 runs this season. 33/1, respectable sixth of 24 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Switches to chasing and can’t be ruled out.
6/4
Fair chaser who was placed for the fourth time in this sphere when a good second of 12 in novice chase at Punchestown (22.6f, heavy) 18 days ago. Expected to be bang there again.
9/1
Fair maiden hurdler who posted an encouraging third of 11 in novice chase at Cork (20f, good to soft) on his debut over fences 26 days ago. Should have more to offer so needs considering.
7/1
Fair hurdler. 6/1, below form fifth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Navan (25f, heavy) 46 days ago. More is needed now starting out in this sphere.
5/1
Fair winner at 21f over hurdles. 50/1, encouraging seventh of 14 in handicap chase at this course (21.6f, good to soft) 40 days ago, fading only late on. One to consider.
