John Lynch Carpets Maiden Hurdle

Flat race winner in France in 2016 but off the track since December 2016 and has clearly had his share of problems.

Three wins in the Point-to-point field and placed as well in two bumper's. Hard to assess for hurdling debut but clearly has ability.

Promise in pair of novice hurdles over 2m4f on both occasions shaping as though this extra trip would suit. The winners of those races Defi Bleu and Monbeg Worldwide clash in earlier race so a prominent display by either would enhance his claims.

Landed a Bumper here in January but let down by some novicey mistakes on Down Royal hurdling debut last month. Clearly capable of better and looks sure to take a hand.

Tailed off on hurdling debut a year ago and first he holds an entry in the 1-50 Fairyhouse on Saturday.

Showed a little ability in a pair of hurdle runs last season but probably one for handicaps further down the line.

Won a Point-to-point in January and following a couple of tame efforts in bumper's, he showed some ability on recent hurdling debut and likely to build on that now.

Won a Bumper in March 2016 but clearly had his problems since but was going well in front when falling in a chase when last seen in the summer.

Hasn't shown enough in a pair of hurdling runs to be of interest and looks more of a long term prospect.
