8/1
May have been the effects of a long season when turning in a second-rate performance at Limerick at the end of last season and pulled up on return to action when tailed off at Listowel. Looks vulnerable in this company.

8/1
Veteran still on a high enough mark following a heavy defeat last time out at the Galway Festival, before finishing fifth of six beaten 4½L at Bellewstown on last national hunt start. Looks to be regressing 14lb lower than last winning mark.

8/1
Beaten favourite last time out in Cork maiden hurdle in March. Distance winner back in February 2016 and may find one or two of the opposition a little quicker today.

106-rated chaser got off the mark in February winning over an extended 2m1f at Clonmel on heavy ground. May struggle still 5lb higher than last winning hurdle mark.

6/1
Improved performance last time out when finishing third of 16 beaten ½L in a Tramore handicap hurdle in August. Can continue improvement in this company.

25/1
One from five over hurdles with that win coming in a maiden hurdle in 2014. Unspectacular on the Flat since and hard to fancy in this sort of contest.

Age: 4|  Weight: 10-13| J: Paul Townend| T: M Hourigan| OR:  96
10/1
16-race maiden including four over hurdles for current yard since joining following a modest Flat career for Richard Hannon. Hard to fancy and others preferred.

5/1
Heavy ground may have been the excuse for a below-par performance last time out when beaten favourite at Gowran Park following promising runs at Wexford and a win at Ballinrobe last month.

Age: 5|  Weight: 10-12| J: Sean Flanagan| T: J J Walsh| OR:  91
4/1
Well beaten in three maiden hurdles but a different proposition since sent handicapping, finishing second of 24 at Punchestown in May, but below-par since. Others come here in better form.

Age: 5|  Weight: 10-8| J: Brian Hayes| T: Miss D O'Shea| OR:  87
33/1
Well beaten in three maiden hurdles and very little to be positive about even with first-time tongue-tie fitted.

Omega Springs3
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-5| J: M A Enright| T: L Casey| OR:  84| D
6/1
Distance winner who has seen his form dip recently following some promising runs over the summer. Will need to improve to figure.

Age: 6|  Weight: 10-2| J: Danny Mullins| T: P J Rothwell| OR:  81
66/1
Well beaten on three hurdle starts in 2015/16 season and beaten 101L on return to action in August of last year when 13th of 14 in Roscommon handicap hurdle over 2m4f. Others preferred.

Forecasts

Broder (4/1), Theatre Run (5/1), Omega Springs (6/1), Miracle Cure (6/1), He's Our Man (8/1), Lets High Five It (8/1), All The Chimneys (8/1), Not Touch (10/1), De Benno (14/1), Grandma Dotty (25/1), Tizme (33/1), Brisengere (66/1)

Verdict

Not a lot of pace in this contest and it could left to C&D winner All The Chimneys to take the field along in the early stages. Theatre Run, where the heavy ground may have been the excuse for a below-par performance last time out, can grab a place here while preference is for MIRACLE CURE who last time out when finishing third of 16 beaten ½L in a Tramore handicap hurdle in August.
