Cristal Clere
Won three last year and was fit from AW when running well in Leopardstown Listed over 1m; handicapper didn't over-react and stepping back up in trip will help as will any rain.

Dutch Gold
Won twice over this kind of trip last term including Curragh handicap off 86; not much luck in running when fourth at Naas on final Flat start; tailed off on hurdling debut in January but could be more to come from him in this discipline.

Take Heart
Progressive over this kind of distance last season, winning off 84 at Naas and fifth of 22 in premier handicap at the Curragh; better for comeback in Irish Lincoln and for stepping back up in trip.

Derry Lad
Likes it soft but proved his versatility when winning twice on better ground in Britain last summer; off since fair hurdles run over Christmas and likely to be better for this outing.

Laelaps
Useful for Jessica Harrington; has been mostly underwheming on the Flat and hurdles for current yard but was third off 7lb higher in 1m2f handicap on Guineas weekend at the Curragh last year; beaten a long way on comeback at Leopardstown but sharper for that.

Jaafel
The money was down on this four-time AW winner last time when runner-up in Dundalk claimer under Davis (nine-day whip ban) who was training him at the time; moderate enough record on turf so surprise were he attract support in this company on stable debut.

Belles Feuilles
Dual winner in France (1m2f/1m4f) last year for Jean-Claude Rouget; entitled to have needed her return at Leopardstown after 11 months off and didn't shape too badly over 1m; Lordan a good booking.

Curragh maiden winner in September and went down by only half a length on handicap debut at Leopardstown the following month; likes to get her toe in so any rain that comes will be a plus and good apprentice takes over; trip is perfect and goes well fresh.
