Winner of a 2m handicap on yielding ground at Tramore in August but disappointed in two following handicap hurdles. Top weight that requires some respect on return and worth a market check.
Has struggled in five handicap hurdle starts in the last 12 months. Hard to construct much of a case for him here.
Potentially exciting youngster who won a Limerick hurdle last month before disappointing in a Fairyhouse novice handicap over timber earlier this month. Not easy to discount.
Generally well beaten in his last three handicap hurdle starts during December and January including a 21L defeat at Fairyhouse. May find this a tough assignment.
Put a number of below-par performances behind him when winning a Wexford maiden hurdle last month. Has Pete So High to contend with again but more improvement very much on the cards.
Game and popular veteran has struggled since winning a Navan handicap hurdle in February. Will go from the front and could hang on for a place.
Game 132-rated hurdler two years ago for David Dennis winning two of his seven hurdle starts for the yard. Little of any note since for new yard and others preferred.
One from 22 over hurdles and overall inconsistent in three starts since the turn of the year. Others hold stronger profiles.

Forecasts
De Benno (11/4), Pete So High (3/1), Crazywork De Vassy (4/1), Fruits Of Glory (5/1), Speaker Connolly (6/1), Wade Harper (7/1), Water Sprite (9/1), Lilshane (20/1), Draycott Place (20/1)
The 13-year-old De Benno will take the field along here with possibly Draycott Place for company. The veteran could make life difficult for some here in the conditions but the likes of Pete So High, Crazywork De Vassey and WATER SPRITE who is back to a winning mark here, can fight out the finish.
