8	Palamon Chestnut J:Sean Flanagan T:Paul Nolan	J:Sean Flanagan T:Paul Nolan	161	t	083P2-	116	125	110	22d	—	—	-4	34.5	11/8 42%
Decent form on soft/heavy of late but flat winner also handles decent ground; contender
14	Trustyourinstinct Chestnut J:Simon Torrens T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	J:Simon Torrens T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	161	—	43-	-	125	100	76d	—	—	-19	13	2/1 33%
Classy flat performer hasn't looked a natural hurdler so far; respected nonetheless
15	Voice Of Reason b/br J:Jordan Gainford T:Gordon Elliott	J:Jordan Gainford T:Gordon Elliott	161	—	7-	-	89	59	137d	—	—	-6	2.2	12/1 8%
Too keen on hurdles debut at Limerick when heavy ground not ideal; better ground to suit
18	Katakana Bay J:Rachael Blackmore T:Henry De Bromhead	J:Rachael Blackmore T:Henry De Bromhead	154	ht	12/10-	-	32	-	104d	—	—	-8	3.1	7/1 13%
Dual French bumper winner far too keen on hurdles debut; remains a player if settling
2	Dutch Gold Bay J:Donagh Meyler T:Noel Meade	J:Donagh Meyler T:Noel Meade	161	—	0-	-	72	-	104d	—	—	-7	2.7	10/1 9%
92-rated flat handicapper; poor hurdles debut but surely capable of better
17	Give Me A Smile Brown J:Mark Walsh T:E Bolger	J:Mark Walsh T:E Bolger	154	—	5-	-	100	18	30d	—	—	-2	0.9	25/1 4%
Late headway on Limerick debut so more expected of here
3	Happy Me Bay J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:W J Burke	J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:W J Burke	161	—	06-	-	100	12	20d	—	—	-3	1	22/1 4%
Tramore run an improvement on debut but likely a lot more required here
1	Bitofajokelike Bay J:Conor McNamara T:E McNamara	J:Conor McNamara T:E McNamara	161	—	—	-	-	-	—	—	—	-2	0.7	40/1 2%
Cost £28,000 as 3yo; market best guide on debut
9	Rhythm And Tyne Bay J:Philip Byrnes(3) T:C Byrnes	J:Philip Byrnes(3) T:C Byrnes	161	—	9-	-	94	73	15d	—	—	-2	0.7	33/1 3%
AW winner never sighted on hurdles debut at Downpatrick; entitled to come on for that
R20	King In Love Bay J:Sean O'Keeffe T:Sean Aherne	J:Sean O'Keeffe T:Sean Aherne	161	—	87-	-	97	49	17d	—	—	-2	0.7	33/1 3%
Some level of ability in Bellewstown maiden last month but may need more time; reserve
13	Tannery Park Bay J:Michael O'Sullivan T:Barry Connell	J:Michael O'Sullivan T:Barry Connell	161	—	90-	-	75	33	22d	—	—	-1	0.4	66/1 1%
Two hurdle efforts suggest he'll be of more interest in handicaps
4	Kellys Grove Bay J:Richard Condon(5) T:Michael Butler	J:Richard Condon(5) T:Michael Butler	161	—	547-	-	85	55	22d	—	—	-1	0.4	66/1 1%
Both hurdle runs at Limerick were modest, easily passed over
11	Star Of Mayo Chestnut J:G B Noonan(5) T:E McNamara	J:G B Noonan(5) T:E McNamara	161	—	0-	-	90	-	20d	—	—	-2	0.7	50/1 2%
AW winner dropped out quickly on hurdles debut at Tramore last month, seems best watched
12	Tamborasi River Bay J:Liam Quinlan(5) T:Ray Hackett	J:Liam Quinlan(5) T:Ray Hackett	161	—	—	-	-	-	—	—	—	-1	0.4	66/1 1%
Unlikely source of a first-time out maiden winner
6	Kir Royal Blou Chestnut J:Shane Fitzgerald T:W J Burke	J:Shane Fitzgerald T:W J Burke	161	—	0-	-	90	-	51d	—	—	-1	0.4	80/1 1%
Novicey jumping when never counting here in March on debut; can only be watched for now
7	Lynskey Chestnut J:Ben Harvey T:Joseph Anthony Murray	J:Ben Harvey T:Joseph Anthony Murray	161	—	—	-	-	-	—	—	—	-1	0.4	80/1 1%
Poor flat maiden, hard to muster any confidence for on hurdles debut
16	Duchamps Art Bay J:Maite Laubies(7) T:Ms Margaret Mullins	J:Maite Laubies(7) T:Ms Margaret Mullins	154	—	090-	-	82	36	22d	—	—	-1	0.4	100/1 1%
Beaten a long way in three maidens, can only be watched
NR	Kilcrea Castle Bay J:NON-RUNNER T:James Joseph Mangan	J:NON-RUNNER T:James Joseph Mangan	161	—	9-	-	98	16	41d	—	—	—	0	—
Didn't count on debut here in March, showing a bit of ability; much more needed though
NR	Royal Reprobate Brown J:Keith Donoghue T:Gavin Cromwell	J:Keith Donoghue T:Gavin Cromwell	161	—	—	-	-	-	—	—	—	—	0	—
Yard in terrific form so market support on debut has to be noted
NR	Rocket Ruby Bay J:Carl Millar(7) T:Cian Collins	J:Carl Millar(7) T:Cian Collins	161	—	—	-	-	-	—	—	—	—	0	—
Market best guide on debut if getting a run; reserve

Well held in midfield in 2m maiden here in March, best watched for now; reserve
