2	No silk	Brave Troop Brown J:Brian Hayes T:Barry J Fitzgerald	J:Brian Hayes T:Barry J Fitzgerald	161	—	—	-	94	63	13d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Should improve for his Punchestown run but others much more likely

Mark of 109 looks fair and unlikely to be far away if finding more improvement
6	No silk	Grappa Nonino Bay J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:D K Weld	J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:D K Weld	161	—	—	-	106	77	29d	—	—	—	0	—	—

Jumping was an issue when well beaten on both hurdle runs; needs this for a handicap mark

Two good runs; tried in a tongue-tie and cheekpieces and no surprise if he got involved
10	No silk	Rocket Spirit Bay J:Cian Cullinan(7) T:P G Fahey	J:Cian Cullinan(7) T:P G Fahey	161	—	—	-	-	-	—	—	—	—	0	—	—

Likely to come on for a good Fairyhouse run but others look more likely
16	No silk	Winterscape Chestnut J:Richard Deegan T:Paul Nolan	J:Richard Deegan T:Paul Nolan	161	—	—	-	94	-	—	—	—	—	0	—	—
Well beaten on his hurdles debut at Leopardstown and again at Dundalk last week; no appeal
