Naas Farm Machinery Hunters Chase

Useful chaser. Fifteen runs since last win in 2020 and was well held after 3 months off in handicap chase at Galway when last seen in July. Off 6 months and needs to bounce back.

Useful chaser. C&D winner. Looked rusty after 9 months off when second of 6 in hunter chase (6/5) at Thurles (24.7f, soft) 20 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time and is likely to be back near his best with that under his belt.

Useful chaser who ran one of his poorer races back over hurdles when seventh of 12 in handicap at Listowel (20f, soft) in June. Cheekpieces back on. Has run well fresh before and can play a part if returning to something like his best.

Fair hurdler who made second chase start a winning one in 12-runner hunter (20/1) at Clonmel (20f, heavy) 25 days ago. Up in trip and lot more required.

3-time hurdle winner (for Francois Nicolle) in France who has made the frame on 2 of his 3 starts in points, runner-up latest (Jan 29). This is no easy task, though.
