'Leopardstown winner well held at Fairyhouse; goes up in trip now'
'Back from a break on first start for new yard with trip/ground to suit; others preferred'
'Didn't seem to stay in 3m Limerick handicap and drops in trip here following a break'
'C&D winner off this mark in 2020; handicapper given him a chance and rider's claim a bonus'
'Better chaser on soft/heavy but has to be respected here off 17lb lower hurdle mark'
'Ran well to a point in Pertemps; back in trip and on better ground so improvement likely'
'Lost his form for Gordon Elliott of late and debuts for new yard here'
'Two good recent hurdle runs at Navan and Fairyhouse put him firmly in the mix here'
'Unproven over this far and won't want too much rain'
'Drop in trip to suit but remains plenty high in the handicap'
'Drop back in trip should suit but may be high enough in the handicap right now'
'Not one to rule out but others probably better treated and best form is on soft/heavy'
'3m probably beyond him last time but this trip/ground to suit so don't rule out'
'Emerged from 529-day absence when well held twice over fences recently; hard to fancy'
'Formerly smart performer down to a competitive mark but lacks a recent run'
'Absent since October and looks to have a bit to do off this hurdles mark'
'Upped in trip here for handicap debut and doesn't appear an obvious one'
'Absent since November and of limited appeal here upped in trip'
'Novice unexposed entering handicap ranks and respected'
'Best form at Limerick, recent Tramore effort was tame so questions to answer'
'Not progressed as hoped in maidens but can't be ruled out on handicap debut'
'Upped in trip here and may struggle to get home under forcing tactics'
'Warwick second faces much stiffer opposition here and longer trip an unknown'
'Better ground could suit here but high enough opening mark on what he's achieved'
