One of six for yard; bumper winner at this venue (yielding); highly tried at times since but jumping has held him back, albeit wasn't beaten that far when fourth at Fairyhouse on penultimate; had an excuse (coughing) when pulled up latest; and might rebound in new headgear combination back at the scene of his bumper win.

J: Jack Kennedy

T: Gordon Elliott

Navan bumper winner last season who made very promising hurdles debut in Leopardstown maiden before set very stiff tasks twice in Grade 1 contests; jumping let him down on seasonal return at Fairyhouse in November when reportedly hanging violently left throughout in first-time tongue-tie; Jack Kennedy sticks with him and big player if near his best.

T: Gordon Elliott

Bumper winner, beating Strong Link (now a useful hurdler) at Navan; ambitious novice campaign last season, contesting two Grade 1 events, after a good third in Leopardstown maiden won by Kopek Des Bordes; should have enough ability to win a maiden as long as there are no physical issues; wears a tongue-tie for the first time.
