Angostura
Modest point-to-point form; got off the mark on second hurdles start at Gowran (2m, heavy) in March; pulled up in Grade 2 at Fairyhouse later that month; absence to overcome and race conditions against him.

Ballycallan King
Handicap hurdle winner off 108 at Limerick (2m, heavy) in April; never in contention when a faller on chasing debut at that venue over the Christmas period; looks up against it here.

Beckett Rock
Looked potentially smart when a 15l debut winner of a Gowran maiden hurdle 14 months ago; the form hasn't worked out well and he was underwhelming on return at Punchestown last month; bit to prove.

Bunting
Flat winner in France; won Limerick maiden hurdle (2m, soft to heavy) in Christmas 2023 before beaten around 2l into fourth by Kargese in Grade 1 Spring Juvenile Hurdle at Leopardstown; has found life tough since but 135-rated hurdler sets a high bar here on return.

Byker
Good novice hurdler who went down narrowly in the Boodles at Cheltenham in 2023; subsequent form has been disappointing however, last seen finishing well beaten behind Aspire Tower at Punchestown in October; market will be revealing.

Got Glory
Maiden hurdle winner was second in Listed mares' novice at Punchestown (16.5f, yielding) in May; the third has since won a Grade 2; burst blood vessel when pulled up at Punchestown on return; fell at Leopardstown latest; talented but risky proposition.
