Comment: Dual 2m hurdles winner last year on good ground (rated 121) and emerged from 156-day absence in fine form to win 1m4f Tramore Flat maiden 15 days ago, making all to beat an odds-on shot decisively; very interesting now sent chasing, handles soft.

Comment: Heavy-ground bumper winner whose hurdle runs have been on better ground, notably all-the-way win in 2m2f Cork novice in May; very disappointing chase debut at Tramore later in month, dropping out tamely once headed two out; much better than that and remains of interest but won't get a soft lead here.

Comment: Smart bumper form and made a winning hurdles debut (rated 130) at Punchestown in December; unseated early on chase debut at Tipperary in May before beaten odds-on favourite at Kilbeggan last month; no disgrace in that performance as the winner (Anyway) is a smart type; unlikely to be inconvenienced by softer conditions; most likely winner.

Comment: Built on promising chase debut at Tipperary to win at Roscommon last month (2m, good); up 7lb but he appears to have more ability in this sphere compared to his hurdle starts; chance.

Comment: Winner at this track on most recent start earlier this month (2m3f, good); stayed on well that day and the majority of his wins have come over further, so drop back to the minimum trip here not sure to suit; up 7lb but claimer helps with that; overall profile says he's not certain to follow up; one of two for trainer.

Comment: Two-time hurdle winner for John McConnell at 2m4f; out of form last season but his stable/chasing debut at Kilbeggan last time was not devoid of promise when behind some decent rivals and he would have likely finished third but for a mistake at the last; that gives him something to build on.

3/1

Comment: Off the mark early this month in 2m7f Tipperary opportunity handicap (yielding), making all for today's rider who is now able to use his claim which negates some of 8lb rise; progressive 6yo should go well if handling softer conditions.

Comment: Point-to-point winner won first two starts over hurdles last year on heavy ground for Donald McCain; no impact in two chase starts for that stable on quicker ground and similarly on recent yard debut at Tipperary; hard to fancy.

Comment: Down Royal maiden hurdle winner in 2023 but is 0-13 chasing, well held here early in the month over 2m4f after a break; softer ground to suit.
