Age: 7|  Weight: 11-12| J: S A Shortall(3)| T: I Madden| OR:  109
Winner of two of his five career chase appearances, well beaten in two handicap hurdles recently and others preferred on return to the larger obstacles.

Flemenstormh,t16
Age: 10|  Weight: 11-10| J: C D Timmons(3)| T: E Cawley| OR:  107| C
Course winner and is two from 11 over the larger obstacles. Showed plenty of zip on New Years Day when second of 14 in a Fairyhouse handicap hurdle. Capable of running a big race.

Horse silk
Hand Of The Kingb4
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-5| J: M A Enright| T: P Neville| OR:  102
Placed twice over fences on heavy ground at Listowel in September but failed to complete in three subsequent starts. Could have a say if ironing out jumping errors.
4
Horse silk
Tiger Sam183
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-13| J: Sean Flanagan| T: N Meade| OR:  96
Not won for some time but still finds himself 1lb higher than last winning mark. Place claims at best.
5
Horse silk
Do Be Doin'p,t31
Age: 10|  Weight: 10-11| J: C A Landers(7)| T: M Hassett| OR:  94| D
Has disappointed connections in a number of dismal chasing displays including an 80L defeat before unseating last time out. Will need to improve to figure.
6
Horse silk
Ardmillan26
Age: 10|  Weight: 10-8| J: A E Lynch| T: S R B Crawford| OR:  91| CD
Winner over C&D this time last year but has subsequently been beaten but not disgraced since. Back down to a workable mark here and place claims on best form.
7
Horse silk
Pack Your Bagsb139
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-5| J: Mark Walsh| T: R Tyner| OR:  88| BF
The step up to 3m miles seemed to suit when second of 20 beaten 1¾L at Down Royal in November before another promising performance at Navan last month. Likely to go close in first-time blinkers.
8
Horse silk
Shanklys Dawnp,t16
Age: 7|  Weight: 9-10| J: A W Short(7)| T: P J Rothwell| OR:  79
Without a win in 11 career chase starts but not disgraced on his last two starts both at Tramore over this trip. Place claims if getting the run of the race.

Forecasts

Pack Your Bags (7/4), Flemenstorm (4/1), Ardmillan (5/1), Hand Of The King (11/2), Tiger Sam (7/1), Shanklys Dawn (12/1), Attalco (16/1), Do Be Doin' (16/1)

Verdict

Hand Of The King likes to get on with things from the front in his races and can lead Attalco in the early stages of the race where preference is for Robert Tyner's progressive Black Sam Bellamy gelding PACK YOUR BAGS in first-time blinkers. Course winner Flemenstown and C&D winner Ardmillan can hit the frame.
