18/1 |
Amber Point
Has been well beaten on all four starts; finished 35l ninth of nine last time out; from a powerhouse yard so cannot be confidently ruled out.

Charlie's Gift
Outran his odds of 250-1 to finish in mid-division on his last start; stayed on past tired horses on that occasion; he could play a hand in this weak race.

- Go To Town
- D J Gilligan / S Fahey

|
|
17/2 |
Go To Town
Finished 24l fifth on his bumper debut and ran to a similar enough level next time out; that is reasonable form in the context of this race; Danny Gilligan now takes the ride which could be a clue to his chance.

Kome Dans Un Reve
Sister to 2m-2m1f hurdle/chase winner; made little impression on first two starts; beaten by 25l when sent off at 100-1 last time; could be the type to improve with experience.

Sionainn
Has first start for new trainer after failing to fire for Gavin Cromwell; 170,000 euros purchase as a 3yo; well beaten when last seen in February; top conditional aboard.

Skyscraper
Half-brother to four winners; beaten comprehensively on two starts with the most recent one happening in March; could have more to offer at this level.

- P K Donovan / C W J Farrell

|
11/10 |
Sticktotheplan
Sent off favourite on first two starts; running ok in his point before falling; disappointed on subsequent start when sent off 11-10 favourite; finished eighth in a bumper on most recent start 14 days ago; that type of form may be good enough here.

- The Burrow
- P T Enright / E J O'Grady

13/2 |
The Burrow
Won a point-to-point by 10l on his third attempt; has been disappointing since running under rules and was most recently beaten by 44l when sent off at 200-1 in a beginners' chase (3m, gd-yld); returns to hurdles here and could possibly play a role.

- Warriors Wood
- D J O'Keeffe / A McNamara
|
|
|
28/1 |
Warriors Wood
Has a useful pedigree but hasn't converted that to the track as of yet; soundly beaten into last back in October; there could still be enough improvement in him to be a contender in this race; jockey booking is a positive.

- Hey Babbs
- P M O'Brien / D A McLoughlin

9/1 |
Hey Babbs
Underwhelming on three starts so far; best effort came last time out when finishing ninth of 22 in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle (2m, sft-hvy); more improvement required.

- C M Quirke / A Slattery

|
20/1 |
Ladies Well
Finished tenth of 16 in a Cork mares' maiden hurdle six days ago; that run was coming from a 222-day break; needs to have improved for the run to be involved.

- Saga Des Aigles
- K C Sexton / D Queally

|
11/1 |
Saga Des Aigles
Her seven starts under rules make her one of the most experienced of the contenders; she finished a 25l fifth of eight on her debut for her current stable last time out at Tramore; prior to that she was running on the Flat to little effect; more improvement needed.
