13/8
Good third in Galway Plate back in August but well below that level next 3 starts over fences, behind when unseating at Leopardstown in February. Never figured returned to hurdling in last month's Martin Pipe at the Festival but this comfortably his easiest assignment for a while.

4/5
Useful hurdler who was fortunate to make a winning debut over fences in a Leopardstown maiden (17f, heavy) 45 days ago, third when left clear last and just holding on. Still, represents top yard and surprise were he not capable of better. Back up in trip.

28/1
Useful dual 2m winner over hurdles who stepped up on chase debut effort when second of 5 in minor event chase (25/1) at Naas (16f, soft) 15 months ago. However, been absent since and market best guide on this belated return.

8/1
Fairly useful chaser who won Listed Porterstown Handicap (29.6f) at Fairyhouse in December. Good third at Cork (20f, heavy) a month later but pulled up all 3 starts returned to staying trips since. Hard to warm to significantly back down in trip.

66/1
Walk In The Park mare who finished placed on 4 of 6 starts in points and shaped better than result when fourth of 11 in hunter chase at Cork (24f, heavy) on NH debut 17 days ago, losing ground 3 out and keeping on gradually. Likely she can improve but this considerably tougher.

Forecasts

Horantzau D'airy (4/5), Hollow Games (13/8), Street Value (8/1), Gaelic Arc (28/1), Some Joy (66/1)

Verdict

HOLLOW GAMES has been operating below his best over fences/hurdles in recent months, yet this comfortably rates his easiest assignment for a while and he could be worth siding with to bounce back. Horantzau d'Airy looked a fortunate winner on chase debut at Leopardstown 45 days ago but remains open to improvement nevertheless and he's fancied to pose the chief threat.
