Promising enough Naas hurdles debut and softer ground here should suit; big player

Leopardstown fourth behind a stablemate at Christmas puts him right in the mix

Some promise on recent hurdles debut but needs to jump much better

Debutante the pick of Rachael Blackmore so well worth a market check

Some debut promise at Tramore; Rachael Blackmore prefers newcomer Adaliz however

Flat winner hasn't really featured in two maiden hurdles; eligible for a mark after this

Not too much to take from two runs, eligible for a mark after this

Okay runs in two point-to-points but hasn't offered a huge amount in two maiden hurdles
