Naas maiden hurdle winner in November, since been going along nicely and not disgraced when chasing home Runfordave on unfavourable terms at Clonmel in February.
Two wins in first of her two starts last summer and posted another good effort when beaten 5L by Peregrine Run at Gowran Park last September. Not seen out since.
A veteran and an in and out performer who has not won for four years until beating Go Forty Go by 8L at Navan six days ago.
Two decent efforts at Limerick and Navan last Autumn but well beaten since and in rear when pulled up latest.
Decent effort when third to War Of The Pennys at Clonmel last September but has made no show in subsequent starts.
Twice a winner last year, took a fall at Tipperary in May which seemed to dent his confidence but looked to have overcome that when just over 7L fourth to Sanibel Island at Navan last month.
Won maiden hurdle in May 2015 on debut but very disappointing subsequently when trained by Henry De Bromhead. The change of yard seems to have done him good, showing improvement when chasing home Sesklnane at Navan recently.
Won a bumper and maiden hurdle in 2015 and has posted several good efforts since. Not seen out since finishing 14L fourth to Sea Light at Killarney last August.
Best effort this season came off a 1lb higher mark at this trip here in October.Seems to have lost his form and tailed off when last seen at Gowran in January.
Relatively lightly raced. Only success gained in a when keeping on well to take a three runner chase at Gowran Park in February last year. In leading group throughout when third at Fairyhouse in December.
Successful in a 2m4f chase over this course on the third run for current trainer. Ran better than final placings might suggest when 11L eighth to Emcon at Cork subsequently.
Two wins (a maiden and a novice) from 34 runs over hurdles does not bode well. Led till headed over 2 out when fourth at Bellewstown on latest start over timber last August. Finished 2nd in 1m6f flat handicap at Listowel the following month. Not seen since.
Won two handicap hurdles in 2014 but has not got his head in front since. Favourite when a well beaten fourth over the extended three miles here last time.
Only three runs under her belt but has improved with each of them, most recently landing a maiden at Cork. Open to further progress.

Seskinane (6/1), Ben Dundee (6/1), Go Forty Go (13/2), Bench Marker (13/2), Shes Flat Tothemat (7/1), Little Mitch (8/1), Admiral Brian (8/1), Definite Soldier (8/1), Tawseef (10/1), Conduct Yourself (10/1), High Expectations (14/1), The King Of Brega (16/1), Howwoulduno (16/1), Golden Boot (20/1), Face Value (20/1), Ronava (20/1), Burning Issues (25/1)
Some in and out performers here which should give top weight BEN DUNDEE an opportunity to get back to winning ways. He was not disgraced when facing a stiff task at the weights on his latest start and should take this. Conduct Yourself looks capable of acquitting herself well, although her fitness has to be taken on trust, and she could occupy the runner-up spot while Admiral Brian looks to be getting back to his best and could make the frame.
