Mouse Morris has tried the consistent AUTOPORTRAIT over 2m and 3m. Perhaps this distance at a stiff track will bring out the best in him, and he is a hopeful choice to make his relative experience count over bumper winners Lovely Hurling, Jump Allen and Road To Home. Another to consider is Cardcounter. [Alan Sweetman]

Promise in both hurdle starts in his native France; similar efforts when placed in maiden hurdles at Navan, Limerick, and Cork since joining this yard; most recent run was over 3m, but previous 2m form indicates that this trip could be close to his optimum.
Half-brother to five winners; beaten 8l by useful yardstick Artic Lane at Knockanard on his only point start for Cormac Doyle in the 2023 autumn campaign; should improve from last month's satisfactory hurdling debut over 2m at this venue.
Second in a maiden point at Curraghmore last October for Pat Doyle; brother to five-time jumps winner Marown; Sam Ewing aboard with Danny Gilligan on the so-far disappointing Jersey Des Brosses.
Took the notable scalp of prolific points winner Winged Leader at Dromahane last season, the middle leg of a point hat-trick for Ellmarie Holden; pulled up in two hunter chases; 100-1 when a clear second (over 40l in front of Siege Ofjadotville) on hurdling debut at Clonmel; this longer trip and stiffer track should suit.
Runner-up in a point before £370,000 sale in 2023; beaten favourite in two bumper starts last year and has failed to provide reassurance in maiden hurdle outings at this venue and Fairyhouse.
Dam an unraced half-sister to smart hurdle/chase winner Livelovelaugh; showed up well for much of the way when third in an eight-runner maiden point at Tattersalls last October; has joined a leading stable.
80-1 for his debut in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle last March when fading into seventh after a bad mistake two out; well-supported for a 2m4f Wexford bumper in May, and won readily; closely related to two hurdles winners for this yard, including the promising Goraibhmaithagat.
First foal; dam French 2m1f hurdle winner, half-sister to smart hurdle/chase winner Peace And Co; failed to complete in two starts for Pat Doyle; unlucky not to collect at Ballindenisk in May, in control when unseating at the last; has joined a top stable.
Belated debut at eight for this well-related Fame And Glory gelding; seventh foal; half-brother to talented jumpers Kildisart, The Big Breakaway and Say Goodbye; carries the well-known colours of Malcolm Denmark; potentially interesting despite his age.
Two point starts for Eugene O'Sullivan; still had a chance of winning when falling two out on debut; looked potentially useful when winning a 2m4f bumper on good to yielding ground at Listowel last June; has joined Willie Mullins.
Second foal out of an unraced half-sister to Irish Cesarewitch winner and Grade 1-winning hurdler Iktitaf; very remote third behind a Willie Mullins-trained winner at Clonmel; needs to jump better.
