Ah Littleluck^t¹¹

Age: 10| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr N McParlan⁽⁵⁾| T: T Gibney| OR: 127

12/1

Has only completed twice in his last six starts including when pulled up last time out behind Biddy The Boss; does have talent but difficult to know when he is going to put in the effort.

Form: PFP43P

Biddy The Boss^t¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr I P Donoghue⁽⁷⁾| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 124| D

5/1

Front runner who advertised her well being when a runner-up over course and distance in December before winning well at Fairyhouse earlier this month; stiffer task at the weights but clearly in good heart.

Form: P59021

Cheb De Kerviniou¹¹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: G Elliott| OR: 124

11/8

Had a fair level of form in France and showed a good attitude when finishing behind Biddy The Boss at Fairyhouse recently; he should have the beating of that rival today at the weights and very much one to consider.

Form: 932-842

Rocky's Silver^p⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr D O'Connor| T: J Dullea| OR: 123| C

7/2

Justified going off as the 7/2 favourite on his last start over fences when he scored in a 14 runner handicap contest here (2m6½f) by 5½L. Has been raised 11lb for that win. Worth consideration again though.

Form: 17-8516

Se Mo Laoch^p¹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr E Mahon⁽⁷⁾| T: B McMahon| OR: 123| CD

15/2

Won this race last year off a 8lb lower mark; was previously known for consistency but struggled slightly after that win, has been hurdling of late and won at Fairyhouse in December; obvious chance.

Form: 5-6401P

Final List^p¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Mr L J McGuinness⁽⁷⁾| T: G Elliott| OR: 118

6/1

First time cheekpieces failed to spark a revival at Leopardstown last time out and he is still looking for his first win over fences; jumping needs to improve but difficult to write off completely.

Form: 0-43046

Forecasts

Cheb De Kerviniou (11/8), Rocky's Silver (7/2), Cappacurry Zak (9/2), Biddy The Boss (5/1), Final List (6/1), Se Mo Laoch (15/2), Ah Littleluck (12/1)

ROCKY'S SILVER had a recent spin over hurdles to prep him for this contest and he could be on for back to back chase wins after scoring well at this track over slightly shorter. He has been raised plenty but he should appreciate this step up in trip and could be the one they have to beat. Cheb De Kerviniou will face Biddy The Boss once again following their 1-2 at Fairyhouse recently on much better terms and should have the beating of the seven-year-old mare.. Se Mo Laoch is hard to write off given he won this contest last year and is certainly one to consider.
