18/1
Convincing winner of his second handicap hurdle at Clonmel (19f, heavy) in March. Warmed up for this with a respectable sixth of 11 on the Flat at Roscommon (1½m, good to soft) 12 days ago. Up in trip. Open to further progress back hurdling.
5/1
11/1, career best when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle at Cork (19f, good to soft) 20 days ago, cruising clear. Up in trip. Even a 10 lb rise looks manageable.
16/1
Best effort for a while when 3¾ lengths third of 16 at Cork (3m, good to soft) last month. Close up when unseated 3 out at Wexford since.
11/1
Moody sort on a long losing run. Did run well for second over fences at Wexford (25f, good to soft, 5/1) a fortnight ago but needs to back it up returned to hurdles.
5/2
Progressive in handicaps, winning 2¾m novice handicap at Down Royal last month by 7 lengths. Only narrowly denied at Cork (3m, good to soft) since. Looks sure to make presence felt if reacting well to first-time cheekpieces.
16/1
Second on 2m Fairyhouse hurdle debut in January but hasn’t built on it since, including seventh of 15 on handicap debut at Cork (19f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Up in trip.
13/2
Won a Cork maiden chase in January and placed in handicaps at Limerick (21.5f) and Cork (19f) back hurdling this spring. Back up in trip.
16/1
14/1, below-form fifth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (3m, good to soft) 42 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others are more persuasive.
4/1
Starting to get his act together in handicaps, finishing creditable fifth of 13 at Limerick (2¾m, soft) on Thursday. Would enter the reckoning if turned out again quickly.
10/1
Won at Limerick last autumn but well held in 2 handicaps on return from break this spring. Bounce back needed.
