Yard in good form and market support on handicap debut worth heeding

Handles conditions but best form over further

Recent runs put him in the mix and first-time hood could bring more
1	Live Your Dreams Bay J:Patrick M O'Brien(5) T:William Durkan	J:Patrick M O'Brien(5) T:William Durkan	168	—	9080	99	101	25	17d	—	—	+6	14.8	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Well held on recent handicap debut; down 3lb but mark still looks on the high side
5	Deise Crystal Bay J:Sean O'Keeffe T:Sean Aherne	J:Sean O'Keeffe T:Sean Aherne	166	—	086	97	93	60	29d	—	—	+4	14.6	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Hasn't counted in three maidens but potential improver now entering handicaps
8	Dunany Point Bay J:Ricky Doyle T:Conor David Maxwell	J:Ricky Doyle T:Conor David Maxwell	162	—	786236	93	102	83	145d	—	—	+9	17.7	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Form is all on decent ground and probably best watched on first run since October
3	Targa Flavio Chestnut J:Shane Markey(7) T:Ross O'Sullivan	J:Shane Markey(7) T:Ross O'Sullivan	168	—	24-43P	99	101	93	124d	—	—	+8	13.9	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Absent since returning clinically abnormal at Fairyhouse in November; wants better ground
11	Vallon Du Plessis Bay J:Conor Stone-Walsh T:Tom Dreaper	J:Conor Stone-Walsh T:Tom Dreaper	153	—	00-P6P	84	99	-	28d	—	—	+5	9.7	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Penultimate Punchestown effort wasn't a bad one; drop in trip may not suit though
9	Jesse James Howard Bay J:Kieren Buckley T:Ms Claire O'Connell	J:Kieren Buckley T:Ms Claire O'Connell	159	t	096	90	87	53	33d	—	—	+8	10.9	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Mildly encouraging maiden run last time; tongue-tied and dropped in trip for handicap bow
2	Ocean Of Dreams Bay J:Eoin Staples(5) T:Gary McGill	J:Eoin Staples(5) T:Gary McGill	168	—	900	99	88	79	31d	—	—	+11	12.7	25.00/1	100/1 1%
Flat winner on heavy; nothing so far hurdling, market best guide on handicap debut
NR	No Big Deal Bay J:NON-RUNNER T:Charles O'Brien	J:NON-RUNNER T:Charles O'Brien	167	t	-32140	98	99	-	96d	—	0W/0P 1 run	—	19.1	—	—
Mistake proved costly at Clonmel last time; respected on previous form though

Relished stamina test to win at Navan; 8lb rise not so much of a concern as drop in trip
