T: William Durkan

Very useful staying handicap hurdler, rated 145, has won twice and was runner-up in valuable handicaps at Aintree and Ascot in recent months; also a winner over fences; had one Flat run in 2023; may find a few too quick for him over this trip.

J: Jamie Orr

T: William Durkan

Useful AW winner in France over 1m/1m1f; campaigned mainly over hurdles by current yard, winning Limerick novice on heavy over Christmas; fine first effort on the Flat for current yard when winning 1m4f Gowran handicap under today's rider in April (soft) under a positive ride; 5lb higher here but remains of interest.

Eagle Fang

11st 6lb

J: Philip Byrnes

T: William Durkan

Excellent efforts in deep 3m handicap hurdles in recent weeks, with the new visor working well; still early days over fences and the form he showed in winning at Thurles suggests he could be as effective in this discipline.
