San Salvador
Smart jumper who won a Grade 2 novice chase last September and added an AW maiden to his tally in January; last seen finishing tailed off in a handicap at the Cheltenham Festival; tackles far better opposition here than for that Dundalk win.

Has only won a Bellewstown maiden (1m4f, good) but she's smart having held her own in Listed and Group 3 races last year (1m4f/1m6f); made an underwhelming return at Cork (1m4f Listed) and cheekpieces now go on, but clearly a strong contender if back on song.

This week last year he finished third to Economics in the Dante at York, which wasn't his only smart piece of form for Owen Burrows; changed hands for 155,000gns in October and gelded; returned from 234 days off to push the evergreen veteran Falcon Eight close over this trip at Gowran and fully entitled to come on for that.

Jet Setting Jim
Bumper/hurdle winner who has been chasing for his last four starts, running two decent races at Galway; pulled up in a novice chase last time (September) but burst a blood vessel and he was a much shorter price that day than the winner San Salvador (competing off level weights).
