J: Jack Kennedy

T: Jonathan Sweeney

Very useful hurdler at up to 3m (rated 132); yet to shine in spell over fences, but not disgraced in Grade 1 behind Final Demand at Limerick in December; behind two smart types in Navan Grade 2 on latest; return to hurdling could spark a revival; Jack Kennedy's sole ride on the card.

J: Philip Donovan

T: Jonathan Sweeney

Useful handicap hurdler at up to 3m (rated 132); early exit on chase debut behind Final Demand when he was 50-1 chance; ran well when fourth in 2m7f beginners' at Punchestown but likely to be outclassed here.

Both wins over hurdles were in early-2023; unseated at the second on belated chase debut in the Navan event won by the exciting Final Demand.

J: Sean O’Keeffe

T: Jonathan Sweeney

Both wins over hurdles were in early 2023; rated 132 and shown since that he's worthy of that mark; aged eight, this is a belated start over fences, but he's bred for them and still has low mileage; there will be other days, however.
