14-race maiden over hurdles, decent effort last time when 10l second to a progressive type
11	Without Exception Bay J:Simon Torrens T:P J Rothwell	J:Simon Torrens T:P J Rothwell	157	p	1-203P	89	101	52	30d	—	—	+13	18.1	5.50/1	22/1 4%

Pulled up in a Clonmel race in which Mullanour was second, unlikely to feature
3	The Little Yank Bay J:John Aherne(7) T:John Patrick Ryan	J:John Aherne(7) T:John Patrick Ryan	164	b	5681PP	96	103	10	30d	—	—	+11	15	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Pulled up on both starts since a Clonmel win in January, others are more reliable

Consistent performer, better chaser than hurdler but has been running well in this sphere
NR	Ardera Gun Grey J:Paddy Cody(7) T:Eoin Doyle	J:Paddy Cody(7) T:Eoin Doyle	157	t	74-000	89	105	65	70d	—	—	—	9.8	—	—
Has failed to finish closer than tenth in three handicap hurdle attempts, up against it
