Emily In Paris
Beaten 9l in a 2m7f handicap at Clonmel last month on her first start since November; reliable mare, has often run well in handicaps over staying trips; this distance is probably short of her best, but ground should be fine; not in the same league as several of these.

Gaoth Chuil
Finished runner-up in valuable 3m Listed Dublin Racing Festival handicap hurdle for the second year running; promoted to career-high 136 after that; beaten 9l when third of four finishers behind the smart Jade De Grugy in a 2m4f Grade 3 event last time; no chasing experience and might prefer further.

Look To The West
Point winner; made a winning start under rules when beating the talented Bioluminesence in a maiden at Navan last season; two subsequent runs were in smart company; after 11 months off, hampered two out when third behind the useful Paggane on chase debut at Clonmel in February; strong contender.

Two hurdle wins at four; fourth on her second chase start in a decent Thurles mares' event in February; last of four at Tramore 12 days ago leaves her with plenty to find.

Good effort on her second run after a lengthy absence, taking second in a mares' handicap hurdle at Limerick in December; no impact in a stronger race at Leopardstown and pulled up at Navan last time.
