Resumes after a break of five months. Finished off last campaign with a 12th in a steeplechase (4526m) at Galway, beaten 118 lengths. Others rate better.

Unplaced two runs back in a in a hurdle (4928m) at Gowran Park. Did a better job at the latest outing when second in a hurdle (4425m) at Thurles, beaten 3 lengths. Looks very hard to beat.

Did not finish the race in a hurdle (4928m) at Gowran Park last start following a ninth in a hurdle (3822m) at Punchestown the run prior. Might find this a bit too tough.

Going well this prep. Placed first-up two starts ago in a maiden hurdle (4727m) at Punchestown then filled a minor prize again last time in a maiden hurdle (4526m) at Navan, beaten 6 lengths. Best jumps form stacks up.

Resumes after a break of three months. Finished off last campaign with a 12th in a hurdle (4727m) at Leopardstown, beaten 25 lengths. Looking to others this time.

Returns after a brief layoff. Last appeared when he finished fourth in a hurdle (4828m) at Fairyhouse two months ago, that effort a nice progression after being safely held the run before. Can pose a serious challenge.

Did not threaten when she finished fifth in a LR (4023m) at Navan last time out, following on from a win in a maiden hurdle (4023m) at Fairyhouse. Likely to make amends for the last-start miss.

Finished sixth two back in a maiden hurdle (3721m) at Naas then again missed out in a maiden hurdle (3822m) at Clonmel last time. Right in the mix if anywhere near his best.

Ended last preparation finishing well back and has failed to produce anything more since resuming this time in. Unlikely to break the poor run of form today.

Filled a minor placing last start in a hurdle (5029m) at Punchestown. That followed success in a hurdle (4727m) at Punchestown by 2 lengths. Will take some beating.

Good run last time out in a hurdle (4023m) at Fairyhouse in soft going on February 22. Has strong claims in this race based on latest effort. Winning hope.

Didn't measure up last time when fifth in a hurdle (4425m) at Thurles but previously finished a close second in a hurdle (4727m) at Punchestown. Well-placed to turn things around.
