6/1
Well beaten on all four starts for current connections since move from France. Possibly a watching brief on chasing debut in first-time tongue-tie.

66/1
Modest form in point-to-point starts bar his latest in May before a crushing 49L defeat on stable debut in a Cork 3m maiden hurdle last month. Big drop in trip for chasing debut.

8/1
Distance winner but a 10-race maiden over the larger obstacles. Appears as time goes by the veterans chance may have passed.

Age: 5|  Weight: 11-12| J: D F O'Regan| T: G Elliott
10/3
French import cost leading connections €55,000 as a three-year-old won his maiden hurdle at the fourth time of asking in a Kilbeggan contest in April. Likely to be well prepped on chasing debut.

Rossmore's Pride52
Age: 10|  Weight: 11-12| J: Simon Torrens(7)| T: Christian Delcros
50/1
Well down the field in a couple of beginners contests since May and requires a chunk of improvement to play a role here.

9/2
Two from 15 over hurdles but remains a five-race chase maiden well held on each occasion. First time blinkers doubtful to bring about the required amount of progress needed to play a role here.

Where's Me Jumpert11528
Age: 11|  Weight: 11-12| J: K J Brouder(7)| T: John Cullen
100/1
Poor in the point-to-point field and not seen in public for over four years. Hard to fancy on belated rules debut.
8
Horse silk
Yaha Fizz31
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-12| J: A E Lynch| T: E D Delany
11/8
Fledgling chasing career ground to a halt over two years ago after failing to finish in a couple of beginners contests. Could be better for the experience here.

Forecasts

Yaha Fizz (11/8), Crezic (10/3), The Irregular (9/2), Arcenfete (6/1), Bendanella (8/1), Rossmore's Pride (50/1), Ask Harry (66/1), Where's Me Jumper (100/1)

Verdict

Although a higher rated hurdler Yaha Fizz may find the Gigginstown House Stud-owned CREZIC more suited to life over the larger obstacles. A €55,000 purchase as a three-year-old he won his maiden hurdle at the fourth time of asking in a Kilbeggan contest in April and is more than likely to be well prepped for chasing debut. In a contest that won't take a great deal of winning Bendanella and Arcenfete look the best of the rest.
  1. Crezic
  2. Yaha Fizz
  3. Arcenfete
