No form on the Flat or over hurdles, and no obvious chance of changing that here.
By Nathaniel out of the 1m-1¾m winner Hasanka, making him a half-brother to useful 1m winner Hasanour. Better effort when a close fourth at Gowran (1¾m) last time, and this late-developer is capable of better still.
Runner-up in a 1½m handicap at Dundalk last month, but bit below best there last time, and is looking exposed, and vulnerable to improvers in this grade.
Beaten just a short head in a 1½m maiden at St Cloud in November for Mikel Delzangles, and joined current connections for €50,000 later in month. Should improve, and one to consider.
Full-brother to useful 1¼m-1m5f winner Ceol Na Nog and closely related to useful 1½m winner Feile Na Mban out of a half-sister to top-class performer Soldier of Fortune. Late start given pedigree, but merits respect given powerful connections.
Fairly useful hurdler at his peak, but well held over fences on his last three starts, and no great appeal tried on the Flat with cheekpieces fitted.
Has won five times over hurdles, but another who has been struggling over fences more recently, and probably more of a handicap project in this new sphere.
Same connections as The Jam Man. Makes some appeal on breeding, but well beaten at a big price on his racecourse debut at Clonmel recently, and a long-term project if anything.
Boasts a fine pedigree, but looked pretty moderate in France for Alain du Royer-Dupre, and probably needs her sights lowered if she's to gain the win which has eluded her so far.
Rip Van Winkle half-sister to 1¼m-2m winner Stormin Tom out of an
unraced half-sister to useful 7f/1m winner She Breeze and 1m winner She Spirit Di Su. Not knocked about on Naas debut in November, and will do better at some point.
Has a modest pedigree, and showed only a modicum of promise in bumpers, so makes no great appeal here.
Showed some aptitude on sole Flat start, but remains a maiden over hurdles, and was well held in a run-of-the-mill handicap last time when sent off favourite. Opposable at this level.
Won a bumper at Wexford, and fair form when placed in a couple of runs over hurdles; will win more races, but will be of more interest when she gets a handicap mark.
Just a moderate maiden hurdler on balance, and failed to beat another rival on her sole Flat outing to date.

Hasanabad (8/11), Rasiym (9/2), Itsalonglongroad (7/1), Owenacurra Lass (7/1), Smart Living (12/1), Dandjira (14/1), Lady In Lavender (33/1), The Granson (40/1), The Jam Man (50/1), Golden Treat (50/1), Galeola (50/1), Slainte And Thanks (66/1), The Tubinator (100/1), Cocoroco (100/1), Havana Breeze (100/1)
HASANABAD shaped well over further last time, and the drop in trip can see the son of Nathaniel get off the mark at the third attempt. Smart Living is an intriguing newcomer, and may give the selection most to do, although Rasiym showed plenty of promise on his 3-y-o debut in France, and also merits a second look in a race where few make much appeal.
