High-class NH performer, most recently good fourth in BetMGM Handicap Hurdle at Cheltenham; two previous Flat runs were on the Dundalk AW, notably previous month when 2l third of 10 over 1m4f; ground no problem, not sure the tight track will suit.

Lightly raced 4yo ran twice on the AW before improvement in Bellewstown maiden last month over just shy of this trip, not quite getting home on soft ground under a positive ride; considered but stamina doubts.

Ulysses colt didn't run at two but three runs already this term, showing plenty of improvement to land Ballinrobe maiden over this trip eight days ago, making virtually all to win handsomely (good-to-yielding); yard took same route with last year's winner Carmers en route to an Ascot success so demands plenty of respect.

Three-time winning hurdler on decent ground; absent since faller at Fairyhouse in November and probably best watched on Flat debut.

E80,000 Y; fourth foal; half-brother to French 6f/6.5f 2yo winner Voodoo Magic (RPR 95); dam 5f AW 2yo winner (85); speedily-bred 3yo didn't count on last month's debut when midfield in much better-class maiden; entitled to improve for that.

Wootton Bassett colt was patently green on last month's Gowran debut, slow to break and wandering before running on strongly into fourth late on (9.5f); cheekpieces now fitted and upped in trip (half-brother a Group 3 winner at 1m6f); won't need to improve too much to play a major role here.

Appeared not to stay 1m5f at Ballinrobe last time; this may be closer to his best trip and he is relatively unexposed.

Five-time winning hurdler hasn't been at his best for some time, but his two runs at this track last autumn were some of his better efforts.
