Lightly raced, now a 131-rated hurdler after Navan win, appealing off 113 with 7lb off

Has a bit to find with Evies Vladimir and Showurappreciation on Navan running
12	Whateys Quest Chestnut J:Miss A L Fitzgibbon(7) T:C Byrnes	J:Miss A L Fitzgibbon(7) T:C Byrnes	153	—	-05342	108	123	121	15d	—	—	+14	23.9	8/1 11%
Went well for this rider off his slightly higher hurdles mark at Limerick after Christmas
13	Harbour Highway Bay J:Mr Alan O'Sullivan(7) T:Emmet Mullins	J:Mr Alan O'Sullivan(7) T:Emmet Mullins	150	—	35P-07	105	125	95	27d	—	—	+8	16	9/1 10%
Weak form so far over fences, could find his level in handicaps; worth a market check
6	Prince Palace Bay J:Mr P W Mullins T:P A Fahy	J:Mr P W Mullins T:P A Fahy	161	b	0-P89P	116	124	108	28d	—	—	+12	18.2	12/1 8%
Won a Listed novice handicap chase at Navan last March, weak form this term, blinkered now
8	Solly Attwell Bay J:Mr R James(7) T:Cian Collins	J:Mr R James(7) T:Cian Collins	161	p	8P1165	116	125	107	43d	—	—	+20	25.9	14/1 7%
Won twice in the autumn, unplaced on two raids to Britain since, valuable 7lb claimed here

Navan second gives him a slight edge over Showurappreciation who may improve
5	Krabat Bay J:Mr A P Ryan(5) T:Michael J McDonagh	J:Mr A P Ryan(5) T:Michael J McDonagh	161	—	30-651	116	124	103	15d	—	—	+13	17.9	16/1 6%
Improved his modest strike to 2-38 when scoring at Limerick last time, often placed
3	Ney Bay J:Mr Finn Buckley(7) T:Edward Buckley	J:Mr Finn Buckley(7) T:Edward Buckley	164	p	11-556	119	126	79	28d	—	—	+14	18.6	16/1 6%
A winner on this card last year, two chase starts this term have been uninspiring
9	Soloman Lane Chestnut J:Mr P W Gleeson(7) T:Martin Hassett	J:Mr P W Gleeson(7) T:Martin Hassett	161	—	325-41	116	123	91	28d	—	—	+13	17.7	20/1 5%
Game winner at Navan, good chance he can uphold form with Whateys Quest and Ney
1	Nine Graces Bay J:Mr Finian Maguire T:Barry Connell	J:Mr Finian Maguire T:Barry Connell	172	t	210-0P	127	125	-	42d	—	—	+16	20.6	20/1 5%
Sole win over fences gained in this event 12 months ago, subsequent form is off-putting
11	Hardwired Bay J:Mr J H Williamson(5) T:T M Walsh	J:Mr J H Williamson(5) T:T M Walsh	158	tb	8-6160	113	123	112	11d	—	—	+14	16.3	50/1 2%

Last four runs have been over hurdles off a much lower mark, chance is not obvious
