Course bumper winner over 2m took a Down Royal maiden hurdle over 2m4f last year; however, was tailed-off on return at Limerick last time and has to put that effort behind her.

Slotty Dotty
Point-to-point winner backed up some solid maiden hurdle runs in defeat when winning over 2m6f at this track on handicap debut last time; raised 10lb but this longer trip should suit and looks a strong contender.

Whatsupnellie
Maiden has shown ability in bumpers and her best maiden hurdle run came over 2m4f at this track three weeks ago when running on; this trip can suit and she should be competitive on handicap debut.

Slim Marvel
Won a 2m4f Kilbeggan maiden hurdle in the summer and some fine runs in defeat since; ran a stormer from 3lb out of the handicap at Cork last time and if she repeats that over this trip then should be involved.

Just 1-20 over hurdles but has plenty of placed efforts to her name too; a fine effort at Navan last time but went up 3lb for that; can run well if staying this trip; tongue-tie on.

Was narrowly denied in this race last year off 1lb higher; didn't repeat that form since but should have improved from Fairyhouse comeback last month and is one to consider.
