Dual hurdles winner last year at around this trip; briefly tried chasing and below best on recent hurdle runs; opposable.

Millyupdahilly
Lowly rated Flat maiden and hadn't shown much hurdling until improvement on handicap debut last month when forcing tactics employed in 2m5f Ayr contest, ultimately reeled in run-in by 3l winner (soft); improving mare though likely stiffer task here.

Shashado
No show in first three maiden hurdles last year and again on recent comeback in Leopardstown handicap; upped in trip here but may need more time.

Kobalt St Georges
Struggled so far in handicaps, most recently never counting over this trip at Fairyhouse last month; handicapper giving him a chance (down 12lb from opening mark).

Precious little to take from four maiden runs over various trips, heavy ground may not have suited last time; best watched on handicap debut.

Mild promise in 2m1f maiden here in November but hasn't progressed; not one to totally rule out though on handicap debut.

Knocknagoran Lady
Pick of six attempts hurdling when third in 2m4f Cork handicap in December that's working out well (yielding); not far off that run in 2m7f Punchestown maiden since when trip stretched her; one to consider back in a handicap over probably her best trip.

20-race maiden under both codes, just okay AW form of late; first run over hurdles since June last year and others preferred.

Ar Nos Na Gaoithe
Off the mark at 12th attempt last month in 2m3f Clonmel amateur handicap, travelling well throughout and readily asserting before two out (soft); 8lb rise for that but could still be well treated and better ground no problem.

Lightly raced mare was well held on handicap debut at Naas last time; tongue-tie now tried but hard to be confident in.

Duce Bigalow
Went close in a point-to-point a year ago and mild promise on recent handicap debut when positively ridden over this trip at Punchestown last month; not one to rule out.

Navy Waves
Thurles maiden hurdle winner in 2022 and several good efforts in defeat since, notably on return from 262-day absence at same venue 11 days ago, coming late for second (good-to-yielding) over inadequate 2m; 2lb higher but should go well back up to a more suitable trip.

Cher Tara
Modest form for Dan Skelton, best effort when second in 2m Market Rasen handicap last summer (good); okay yard debut at Leopardstown recently so don't rule out her making the required improvement to feature.

Fanoir
Winless since landing 2m4f mares' maiden hurdle at Clonmel in 2022 (yielding); has missed recent engagements due to ground, which has come into her favour here so could improve.

Lariat
Two Flat wins; 0-21 hurdling; went close on second start for current yard over 2m5f at Fairyhouse in November but has failed to match that form since; place possibility.

Opening handicap effort at Clonmel last month leaves her with plenty to find unless longer trip brings improvement.

Rideau Canal
Low-grade maiden hurdler ran well in 2m4f Sligo handicap last summer (soft) but not much since; fair chase effort here latest considering he was badly hampered; can't rule out.

Placed on the AW in Britain; not much to recommend over hurdles in five attempts, hard to make a case for; tongue-tie tried.

Le Bugiste
Reserve; three-time Flat winner in France ran a career-best for this yard on his handicap debut when fifth behind Prince Quattro here in January over 2m1f on similar ground; ran no sort of race at Thurles 11 days ago, though.
