Beaten over this trip by Petit King here but stepped up considerably on that when easily landing a 2m handicap here last month; up 9lb for that and steps back up in trip, but very much respected if he can repeat that level of form.

Flattered by his 24-length defeat of a well below-par Tullyhill in a Punchestown maiden hurdle; disappointing on his handicap debut at Navan the following month; might still proved well-handicapped off this mark and blinkers are tried here; could go well.

Trounced a below-par Tullyhill in a maiden hurdle and bounced back from a lesser run to finish runner-up at Punchestown; did well to beat an odds-on chance in a Thurles conditions event; appears progressive. |

Beat Tullyhill in a maiden hurdle and bounced back from a lesser run to finish runner-up at Punchestown last time; tough ask on these terms but arrives in-form at least and he's less exposed than most of these. |

Got off the mark when accounting for today's rival Morricone here in December; unable to match that at Leopardstown subsequently and cheekpieces are tried today.

Lightly-raced bumper winner and seems to have had his issues; very good runner-up after a year off in a Clonmel maiden hurdle in December and drops back in trip here after he was well beaten over 2m7f here last month; others preferred but should do better today.

Bumper winner in 2021 hasn't had many runs since but some solid efforts in maiden hurdles, including when 1.5l behind Innatendue in a 3m Punchestown maiden hurdle last time; that was his first run after a break and can improve from that. |

Lightly-raced bumper winner; seems to have had his issues; runner-up after a year off in a 2m3f Clonmel maiden hurdle last December; well beaten fourth over C&D in January; better when fourth over 2m4f in a handicap here the following month. |

Runner-up in a Punchestown festival bumper last year; reasonable efforts in a trio of maiden hurdles and seemingly well fancied when falling on his handicap debut at Thurles; could well be a factor here if that has not left a mark.

0-7 over hurdles but has finished second on three occasions; rated 117 over timber; 10-1 for his chase debut at Tipperary in May (23.5f, yielding) and was beaten 34l into fourth; his best form is on testing ground; another probably best watched on return from 171 days off. |
