6	Icare Desbois Grey J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	166	—	1/P3	-	123	85	33d	—	—	-22	21.2	0.28/1	11/10 48%
Fine effort at Leopardstown; should have more to offer and very much the one to beat here
3	Butcher Hollow Bay J:Sean Flanagan T:Thomas Cooper	J:Sean Flanagan T:Thomas Cooper	166	—	1-122	-	119	107	31d	—	—	-7	12.7	0.83/1	10/3 23%
Runner-up over 2m and 2m4f; tries the intermediate trip here and should run his race
8	Nas Na Riogh Bay J:Rachael Blackmore T:Henry De Bromhead	J:Rachael Blackmore T:Henry De Bromhead	166	—	F1-42	-	117	68	42d	—	—	-9	3.6	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Dropping back another 2f in trip here and won't be far away if that works out
4	Cleatus Poolaw Bay J:Jack Kennedy T:Gordon Elliott	J:Jack Kennedy T:Gordon Elliott	166	—	21-222	-	114	95	30d	—	—	-10	4	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Has shaped like a stayer but dropping back in trip here; likely to find a couple too good
9	Special Cadeau Bay J:Danny Mullins T:W P Mullins	J:Danny Mullins T:W P Mullins	166	—	/3848-	-	-	-	276d	—	—	-8	4.5	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Winless in bumpers last year; others preferred on his hurdles debut after nine months off
5	Howdoyalikeherhome Bay J:Michael O'Sullivan T:Patrick T Foley	J:Michael O'Sullivan T:Patrick T Foley	166	—	0-8027	-	108	33	16d	—	—	-2	0.6	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Ran okay in the 2m maiden hurdle won by Tullyhill here two weeks ago; one for handicaps
10	Spellacy's Cross Bay J:Mark Walsh T:Thomas Mullins	J:Mark Walsh T:Thomas Mullins	166	—	P5-0	-	86	-	16d	—	—	-1	0.2	50.00/1	200/1 0%
Jumped sketchily on his hurdles debut here two weeks ago; best watched again
7	King Kali Bay J:A P Heskin T:Sean Byrne	J:A P Heskin T:Sean Byrne	166	—	/72/08	-	96	61	31d	—	—	-1	0.3	25.00/1	100/1 1%
Didn't run badly at Limerick in a maiden hurdle last month but much more needed
1	Ballyeden Close Bay J:Tom Harney(7) T:Liz Doyle	J:Tom Harney(7) T:Liz Doyle	166	—	—	-	59	-	33d	—	—	-1	0.2	50.00/1	200/1 0%
Beaten a long way on debut at Leopardstown and no obvious chance on that evidence
11	Hurry Up Flower Chestnut J:Conor Stone-Walsh(5) T:Liz Doyle	J:Conor Stone-Walsh(5) T:Liz Doyle	159	—	—	-	69	28	33d	—	—	-1	0.2	50.00/1	200/1 0%
Never a factor on her debut at Leopardstown; unlikely to figure here
12	Mrs Millionaire Bay J:Shane Fitzgerald T:Declan Queally	J:Shane Fitzgerald T:Declan Queally	159	—	8P-86	-	71	12	17d	—	—	0	0.1	62.50/1	250/1 0%
Did show something at Clonmel last time; needs this for a handicap mark
NR	Beggars Rock Bay J:TBC T:Declan Queally	J: T:Declan Queally	166	—	P5-830	-	14	-	22d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Tailed off on his track debut at Cork last month and makes no appeal
