9/4
Group 3 winner in November 2023. Creditable seventh of 24 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Fairyhouse (20.2f, good) 48 days ago, faring best of those held up. Makes polytrack debut. Blinkers back on. Classy sort but temperamental.

7/2
10/1, much improved when winning 7-runner handicap chase at Thurles (20.8f, good) 27 days ago. Far from bombproof but useful in this sphere and firmly in the hunt.

50/1
14/1, 23¼ lengths last of 4 to La Renommee in listed chase at Doncaster (20.5f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Fair on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing here. Work to do.

Twice a winner in 2022 for Roger Varian, including on handicap debut at Hamilton (9.2f). 100/1 and hood on for 1st time in this code, eleventh of 17 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft) 20 days ago. Makes polytrack debut.

11/10
Fairly useful gelding. Five wins on the level. 4/1, creditable second of 16 in handicap at Galway (11.8f, heavy) 81 days ago. Holds his form well and could be the way to go.

14/1
Good jumper at his best and dual C&D winner. Unsurprisingly looked rusty on first outing since leaving Noel Meade after 19 months off in handicap at this C&D (18/1) 49 days ago.

Forecasts

Jabbar (11/10), Falcon Eight (9/4), Prairie Dancer (7/2), Jerandme (14/1), Glam De Vega (40/1), Effernock Fizz (50/1)

Verdict

Tricky stuff but JABBAR didn't run a bad race in either code for Gerard O'Leary last year and could be the way to go ahead of Falcon Eight and Prairie Dancer.
