Made a promising debut over fences on his previous outing at Roscommon (2m) where he was third of eight and behind a potentially smart chaser. Improvement can be expected here. One for shortlist.
Won twice over hurdles but his form this season has been below his best. Made a modest start to his chase career last time at Limerick (2m2f) where he was fifth of 16 after going off at 50/1. Up in trip so there could be more to come.
Has been in really consistent form this season without success. Was second of 16 last time at Wexford (3m½f) when going off as the 4/1 favourite. A mistake at the last did not help his chances last time. Leading contender here.
Made his chase debut last month where he was fourth of 11 at Punchestown (2m5f) in what was a respectable start. Recently appeared on the Flat, finishing second of eight at Limerick (1m4½f), beaten by a neck. Each-way chance.
Remains a maiden after 20 races. He was pulled up at Tipperary (2m4f) on his only chase appearance so far which came in July 2018. Hurdles form has been poor recently. Needs to improve a lot to have any chance.
Broken his maiden over hurdles in July 2018 but has been unable to follow it up since then. Showed some promise on his second chase start last time at Galway (2m6½f) when second of nine. Open to improvement. One to consider.
A veteran who has scored three times over hurdles but last success was September 2016. Has not appeared since finishing 13th of 15 at Fairyhouse (2m7f) last time. First attempt over fences so one to watch.
Lightly-raced gelding who was a long way down the field on his handicap debut over hurdles at Thurles (3m). First run over fences so keep an eye on the market to see if there is any confidence behind him.
Has been very disappointing in all four of his career starts so far. Went off at 100/1 last time in a maiden hurdle at this track over hurdles (2m4f). Needs to improve a lot over fences to be in the mix here.
Was third of 12 in a maiden hurdle at Tramore (2m5f) two starts back. Did not build upon it last time at Bellewstown where he was 10th of 16. First attempt at fences. Others makes more of an appeal.
Has already had two runs over fences where he was a long way down the field on both starts. Did not perform any better on his return to hurdles last time when 10th of 12 at Kilbeggan (2m). Blinkers on for first time. Others preferred.
Won a point-to-point at Ballingarry last month but has struggled in her two races under Rules since then. Was sixth of 13 last time at Roscommon (3m1f). Taking a significant drop down in trip. One to watch.

Churchtown Glen (11/4), Touch Base (7/2), One Cool Poet (7/2), Torquay (4/1), Banjo (6/1), Carrigready (10/1), Everyone's Invited (10/1), Classic Escape (14/1), Road Warrior (16/1), Pakie's Dream (25/1), Hilltop Supreme (25/1), Railway Muice (33/1), War Of The Pennys (40/1), Clorinka (66/1), Market Parade (66/1)
CHURCHTOWN GLEN will surely not have to wait much longer for his opening success over fences. If it wasn't for a mistake at the last on his latest start, he may have already broken his maiden. This looks a good chance for him to get that first win. Touch Base was much better on his second chase start last time and is likely to improve further here, while Banjo made a promising start to his chase career last time and is capable of hitting the frame again.
