Won his bumper here and both seconds over hurdles also at this track, last time going down by 2l in a maiden in April; should give his running but others have stronger form credentials. |

OR: —
The winner of two bumpers; yet to prove himself quite so clever over hurdles partly due to his jumping, but he did complete here last time and gave a consistent rival plenty to think about; could be the answer should Stormbreaker not come up trumps.

The winner of two bumpers; has yet to transfer that ability to hurdles, though still held some chance when falling late on at Bellewstown a month ago; should be very competitive provided his jumping stands the test. |

11st 12lb |
Point-to-point winner and dual bumper winner (good/yielding to soft); hurdles campaign has got off to an inauspicious start, last-flight faller (beaten) at Wexford and dropped out quickly in Grade 2 Kelso novice when tongue-tied; back from a break and goes well fresh so still has to be respected. |

OR: —
Won his bumper here in early 2022; hasn't got close to that RPR since sent over hurdles but Wexford last time was a step in the right direction, finishing fourth of 14; however, he was beaten 16l and this 8yo looks to have limitations.

Impressive Downpatrick bumper winner in March 2022; hasn't built on that since in three starts since; beaten 28l into fifth at Ballinrobe 27 days ago after 15 months off; entitled to come on for that but will need to. |

1m4f/2m winner for James Fanshawe (nine starts) and joined Willie Mullins for 70,000gns; down the field in a 2m Flat handicap at the recent Galway festival but should come on for that after an absence of 661 days; makes obvious appeal for top yard.

Things are picking up after going down by about 4l in his last two maidens (at 2m4f) but, while he tackles smaller numbers this time, he may still have more on his plate; cheekpieces added.
