Fair chaser. Blinkered for 1st time, thirteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Navan (21f, heavy, 22/1) 9 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase and cheekpieces back on. Not taken lightly.
Modest hurdler. 15/2, eighteenth of 22 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (20f, good). Off over 2 years ahead of this chase debut. Yard also saddles Gortmore Lady.

Poor hurdler. Pulled up in handicap hurdle (10/1) at Wexford (20f, soft) 30 days ago, tailed off when pulled up before 2 out. Makes chase debut.

Fair chaser. 1 win from 2 runs this season. Unseated rider in novice chase at Gowran (20f, heavy, 8/1) on debut over fences 17 days ago. Should be in the mix granted a clean round.
Lightly-raced maiden. 20/1, eleventh of 24 in handicap hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) 9 days ago. Runner-up sole start between the flags and may well step up on his low-key hurdles form now moving up in trip for this chase debut.
Modest hurdler. Respectable seventh of 20 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (24.3f, good to soft, 9/1) 25 days ago. Makes chase debut and each-way shout if her jumping passes the test.
Fair hurdler. 11/2, seventh of 11 in novice chase at Thurles (18.3f, good to soft) 26 days ago. The ability is there, but she has yet to fully convince over fences.
Modest hurdler. 20/1, below form ninth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (19.8f, heavy) 17 days ago. Opposable now switched to fences.
