'Very poor effort in a handicap hurdle at Roscommon last month and needs to bounce back'

'Overdue win in a Punchestown handicap hurdle last month; up 5lb and a leading contender'

'Modest maiden and handicap form; 5lb out of the handicap and looks up against it'

'Very consistent; keeps going up the handicap though and faces another difficult task here'

'Good second here last month; top rider booked and has to have a solid chance here'

'Downpatrick specialist; this track has its similarities and he won here last year; player'

'Won a claiming hurdle over 2m2f here last month; very poor on the Flat at Limerick since'

'Soundly beaten in three maiden hurdles and a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle; others preferred'

'Any rain that falls will help but others look more likely to run their race'

'Well beaten last twice and makes no appeal from 8lb out of the handicap'
