Still looking for a breakthrough win over fences but was ahead and yet to be asked for his effort when falling 2 out in handicap at Tramore (2¾m) when last seen in August. Entitled to go well if returning in similar form.

Again failed to see out his race over hurdles at Kilbeggan (2m) last time. Steps back up in trip and it's hard to be confident making a quick switch to fences (showed little in 2 points).

Fair winning hurdler has improved with each run over fences, finishing fourth of 14 on return from 4 months off at Downpatrick last week, and he's expected to be firmly in the mix.

Fair winning hurdler who was often overfaced over fences/hurdles towards the end of last year. Stable has had several horses run better in recent weeks, though, and he's worth a market check on return.

Low-mileage 6-y-o who has switched to a powerful owner since finishing creditable sixth of 18 in a Punchestown handicap hurdle on return (previously shaped as though he has a bigger performance in him) and is worth noting if the market speaks in his favour back over fences.

Quirky sort ran below the best of his hurdle form on chase debut last September. Tackles a much longer trip second time up over fences, though, should at least come on for his reappearance at Cork.

Shaped as if worth retrying over this sort of trip when never-nearer fourth at Tramore on chasing debut last month, and while not in the same form in a Downpatrick handicap hurdle on her latest start, she's worth siding with back over fences.

Thurles maiden hurdle winner who got back on track when fourth in a Wexford handicap hurdle on her latest start. Hit the frame in a pair of points earlier in her career and this lightly-raced 7-y-o (sporting a first-time tongue strap) needs considering on chase debut.

Has been running well without winning in handicap chases this season, latterly when third over a markedly longer trip at Wexford (25f), but she's seemingly the type who needs plenty to fall right.

Only poor form in bumpers/maiden hurdles and offered little on chase debut at Kilbeggan latest. Tongue strap goes on for the first time.
