Didn't stay 3m at Chrismas; good 7lb claimer on and likely to give a much better account
2	Vanillier gr J:Keith Donoghue T:Gavin Cromwell	J:Keith Donoghue T:Gavin Cromwell	163	tp	336-36	145	156	82	48d	—	—	—	23.8	—
First handicap and the stable are in terrific form so potentially could go well
3	Ballyshannon Rose b J:Cian Cullinan(7) T:P G Fahey	J:Cian Cullinan(7) T:P G Fahey	160	—	-82273	142	150	133	35d	—	—	—	30	—
Good run here in the Paddy Power; could have each-way potential in a very open contest
4	Maskada b J:Rachael Blackmore T:Henry De Bromhead	J:Rachael Blackmore T:Henry De Bromhead	159	—	3F4-F1	141	151	72	39d	—	—	—	22.8	—
Up 9lb for Limerick but looks on the improve and handles any ground; leading contender
5	Foxy Jacks b J:Shane Fenelon(7) T:M F Morris	J:Shane Fenelon(7) T:M F Morris	156	p	P-635F	138	152	41	8d	—	—	—	22	—
Second in this last year off 2lb lower;each-way claims again in a more competitive renewal
6	The Goffer b J:Davy Russell T:Gordon Elliott	J:Davy Russell T:Gordon Elliott	156	—	4-4123	138	150	116	22d	—	—	—	22	—
Below his best of late and doesn't look to have much leeway off his mark; others preferred
7	West Cork Wildway br J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:Paul Oflynn	J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:Paul Oflynn	156	—	144-59	138	144	86	80d	—	—	—	22	—
Cut out alarmingly hurdling latest; likely to fare better but a few others appeal more
8	Real Steel b J:Conor McNamara T:E Mcnamara	J:Conor McNamara T:E Mcnamara	155	—	4-4421	137	148	116	40d	—	—	—	21.8	—
Paddy Power winner has often appeared as though this trip could be his best; respected
9	Take All b J:Jody McGarvey T:John Joseph Hanlon	J:Jody McGarvey T:John Joseph Hanlon	155	ht	P7-829	137	158	139	40d	—	—	—	21.8	—
More needed here on his debut for Shark Hanlon but not one to discount completely
10	Farceur Du Large gr J:B J Cooper T:Noel Meade	J:B J Cooper T:Noel Meade	154	b	41-418	136	153	137	40d	—	—	—	21.5	—
Blinkered here and one to be taken seriously back down to possibly his best trip
11	Birchdale br J:Aidan Kelly(7) T:E Bolger	J:Aidan Kelly(7) T:E Bolger	153	p	7-26P7	135	156	91	169d	—	—	—	21.3	—
Not seen since mid-division in a handicap chase at Killarney in August; others more likely
12	Ilikedwayurthinkin b J:Mark Walsh T:Gavin Cromwell	J:Mark Walsh T:Gavin Cromwell	153	p	2-2P9P	135	152	55	39d	—	—	—	24.8	—
The mount of Mark Walsh; with the stable in fine form he could leave recent form behind
13	Top Ville Ben b J:Thomas Dowson T:Philip Kirby	J:Thomas Dowson T:Philip Kirby	153	h	12P-35	135	152	83	41d	—	—	—	21.3	—
Here on the back of a moderate effort in the Rowland Meyrick at Wetherby; others preferred
14	Egality Mans bl J:Danny Mullins T:W P Mullins	J:Danny Mullins T:W P Mullins	151	p	4-30PP	133	157	104	10d	—	—	—	20.8	—
Pulled up in the Paddy Power and the Thyestes last twice; makes little appeal at present
15	Indigo Breeze gr J:Sam Ewing T:Gordon Elliott	J:Sam Ewing T:Gordon Elliott	151	h	8-F322	133	161	118	84d	—	—	—	20.8	—
Probably best over further but totally unexposed on his handicap chase debut; interesting
16	Falco Blitz b J:Cian Quirke(7) T:E Mcnamara	J:Cian Quirke(7) T:E Mcnamara	150	p	-P4U84	132	152	120	39d	—	—	—	20.5	—
Well beaten last twice; looks the outsider of the two stable runners
17	Mars Harper b J:Denis O'Regan T:Gordon Elliott	J:Denis O'Regan T:Gordon Elliott	150	p	363224	132	158	127	47d	—	—	—	27.4	—
Looks reasonably handicapped on his best form and one of the more interesting runners
18	Rambranltjac b J:Brian Hayes T:W P Mullins	J:Brian Hayes T:W P Mullins	148	—	-14256	130	143	133	70d	—	—	—	24.5	—

Respectable run at Limerick before beaten out of sight at Thurles; others preferred
20	Now Where Or When ch J:J J Slevin T:S R B Crawford	J:J J Slevin T:S R B Crawford	145	tp	3P32-1	127	151	130	93d	—	—	—	29.3	—

Sole career win came in this race three years ago; has not shown anything of late
22	Revelyn Pleasure b J:Richard Condon(5) T:Sean O Obrien	J:Richard Condon(5) T:Sean O Obrien	140	p	-542F3	122	154	115	14d	—	—	—	22.5	—
Below his best at Thurles two weeks ago, but better judged on two previous efforts
23	Charlie Stout br J:Mike O'Connor(5) T:Shane Nolan	J:Mike O'Connor(5) T:Shane Nolan	140	t	-47442	122	151	126	14d	—	—	—	23	—
