Has failed to beat any of her 14 rivals home in three contests this year . She was not beaten far in a strange race last time and she's flattered by her proximity to the winner. Runner-up in this race 12 months ago, but looks vulnerable at present.

Reverts back to hurdles where her mark gives her a bit to find on these terms. She has won here previously and blinker tried this time.

Found 3m too far at Punchestown and although he has won twice at this trip, he looks ready for further and this sharp track may not be present enough of a test.

Made all to score at Fairyhouse in January but was tailed off on only start since. That was in a much hotter race than this and it would be dangerous to rule him out.

Had been running to a standard good enough for this until producing a shocking display last month. Needs to bounce back quickly.

Scored over 2m on seasonal debut in September and was then tried over further. Given a break since Christmas and the choice of Davy Russell.

Successful three times over hurdles in 2016 but he has been poor on her last three starts and he may be in above his head here.

Forecasts

Park Paddocks (1/1), Monotype (2/1), Arvico Bleu (3/1), Play The Game (4/1), Great Khan (6/1), Jaime Sommers (11/1), Getoutwhenyoucan (16/1), Magna Cartor (22/1), Countess Cathleen (33/1)

Verdict

PARK PADDOCKS has cruised to victory on his last two starts and is worth a risk in this grade against rivals who need to up their game. The other Gigginstown runner Arvico Bleu won on his seasonal debut last year so needs to be considered, but Great Khan was a huge disappointment last time. Monotype may want a stiffer test and last year's runner-up, Jaime Sommers, has been below her best lately.
