5/1
Course winner that has also won over the distance. Failed to build on decisive win here in February when eighth of nine at Navan last month. Bounce back to form on the cards.

3/1
Bumper winner and placed twice from five starts over hurdles so far. More progress possible and not easily dismissed.

9/1
Generally well beaten in three maiden hurdle starts in her career despite a couple of finishing positions papering over the cracks. Has plenty on here to play a role.

16/1
Looks held on recent form following a number of gloomy displays and hard to see where the necessary improvement may come from.

Sunset Sadiet25
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-0| J: E O'Connell(7)| T: E O'Connell| OR:  99| BF
9/2
Successful twice on heavy ground in handicap hurdles and hinted at a return to form last month in a Downpatrick 2m3f contest. In good form and not one to leave out of calculations.
6
Horse silk
Mill Quest60
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-13| J: D J McInerney(5)| T: T O'Brien| OR:  98
4/1
Distance winner back in September 2016. Well beaten in three maiden hurdles since the turn of the year and very little to be positive about.
7
Horse silk
Victoria Bay28
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-10| J: Sean Flanagan| T: C Bowe| OR:  95
5/1
Landed a point-to-point on good ground so every possibility we are yet to see the best of her under rules.
8
Horse silk
Gliondar Mo Chroi30
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-9| J: M A Enright| T: A Fogarty| OR:  94
20/1
Has disappointed connections with a series of gloomy maiden hurdle displays since February. Will need to improve to figure.

Forecasts

Goaheadmakemyday (3/1), Mill Quest (4/1), Sunset Sadie (9/2), Victoria Bay (5/1), Pat's Oscar (5/1), Askann (9/1), Presenting Mahler (16/1), Gliondar Mo Chroi (20/1)

Verdict

Could be a three-way battle for the lead here in this contest between Goaheadmakemyday, Askann and PAT'S OSCAR who can take this contest for Grand National winning duo of Gordon Elliot and Davy Russell. The Oscar mare can bounce back from a disappointing run last time out at Navan.
  1. Pat's Oscar
  2. Goaheadmakemyday
  3. Askann
