T: Henry De Bromhead

Runner-up in the Martin Pipe Handicap Hurdle here (2m4f, heavy) in March 2024; 0-6 over fences but he returned to form when third in a big-field handicap at Leopardstown (extended 2m5f, soft) last month, when shaping as though this first crack at a staying trip could be right up his street.

Dual hurdle winner has shown ability in some of his five chase starts but was poor at Fairyhouse last time when favourite; may do better back left-handed and not dismissed.

T: Henry De Bromhead

Dual hurdle winner up to 2m4f is yet to score over fences but has posted several decent runs; was running on over 2m2f in a Galway beginners' last time and the step up in trip should suit on handicap bow; a big player.

J: Mark Walsh

T: Henry De Bromhead

135-rated hurdler whose two wins include here; limited first season chasing last term, good second on Navan debut but then dropped out tamely in Grade 1 Limerick novice at Christmas; not seen until staying on fourth (having been hampered) behind a stablemate in 2m2f Listowel novice last month; entitled to improve for that and major player.
