6/1

1 win from 3 runs this season. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 7-runner handicap hurdle (7/1) at this course (21.6f, good) 52 days ago. Merits consideration.

12/1

11/2, seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (20f, good to firm) 17 days ago, never travelling well. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort.

33/1

Winner in hurdle at Punchestown in January. Fell 4 out in handicap hurdle at Naas (19f, good to soft, 18/1) 162 days ago too far out to suggest outcome. Not discounted.

Forecasts

Oskar High (11/8), Watch The Weather (7/2), Galon De Vauzelle (6/1), Western Doyen (10/1), Gallowglass (11/1), Kilashee (12/1), Bentham (12/1), Krabat (14/1), Abraham (14/1), Whatsyourstatus (25/1), Bonnie Kellie (33/1), Scheu Time (33/1)

OSKAR HIGH ran out an emphatic winner at Galway on Monday and is weighted for a quick follow-up under a 7 lb penalty. Galon de Vauzelle is feared most on the back of his win here with Watch The Weather also not taken lightly in his hat-trick bid.
