#	Horse	Jockey / Trainer	Wt	Gear	Form	OR	RPR	TS	Last	Crs	Dst	Val	Scr	EW	Odds
3	Shuffle The Deck Bay J:Mark Walsh T:T M Walsh	J:Mark Walsh T:T M Walsh	162	—	P1-433	133	141	117	49d	—	—	+6	26.9	0.75/1	3/1 25%
Handicap chase debut and seemingly Walsh's pick; would appreciate some drying in ground
11	Come Walk With Me Brown J:Donagh Meyler T:Edward Cawley	J:Donagh Meyler T:Edward Cawley	154	—	8-6542	125	141	131	33d	—	—	+7	23.8	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Leopardstown second promising; worth a look on handicap debut
1	Break My Soul Bay J:Keith Donoghue T:Ian Patrick Donoghue	J:Keith Donoghue T:Ian Patrick Donoghue	166	t	-14723	137	141	136	25d	—	—	+21	33.9	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Grand Annual third; no easy task for top-weight but has to be respected
5	Jalila Moriviere Bay J:Simon Torrens T:W P Mullins	J:Simon Torrens T:W P Mullins	161	t	-63133	132	145	126	31d	—	—	+24	34.6	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Didn't seem to stay 2m6f last time; entitled to improve and drop in trip may suit
6	Karamoja Bay J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	161	t	34-671	132	139	120	31d	—	—	+12	23.8	1.75/1	7/1 13%
All-the-way Thurles winner; type to keep improving and could play a role; Townend's pick
8	More Coko Bay J:Brian Hayes T:W P Mullins	J:Brian Hayes T:W P Mullins	158	ht	5892F6	129	139	134	29d	—	—	+14	23.9	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Heavy ground probably against him at Gowran; earlier C&D second was good though
10	Moudan Bay J:Eoghan Finegan(7) T:Ciaran Murphy	J:Eoghan Finegan(7) T:Ciaran Murphy	156	—	312951	127	141	122	15d	—	—	+28	34.7	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Recent Navan winner progressing nicely and can be involved off 5lb higher
9	Anotherway Bay J:Danny Mullins T:Thomas Gibney	J:Danny Mullins T:Thomas Gibney	156	t	-55318	127	144	114	29d	—	—	+24	29.1	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Found wanting on handicap debut behind Jigoro at Gowran on heavy; opposable
4	Birdie Or Bust Bay J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:Henry De Bromhead	J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:Henry De Bromhead	161	t	1U4712	132	140	109	172d	—	—	+29	33.5	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Has run well fresh so respected on return although trip on the short side
2	Jigoro Bay J:James Smith(5) T:Gordon Elliott	J:James Smith(5) T:Gordon Elliott	165	b	237531	136	143	122	29d	—	—	+32	35.2	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Recent Gowran winner under today's rider; 5lb higher and this looks a much stronger race
13	Rockbrook Bay J:Shane O'Callaghan(5) T:P J Rothwell	J:Shane O'Callaghan(5) T:P J Rothwell	149	p	-73115	120	142	127	45d	—	—	+28	31.4	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Jumping let him down at Thurles but don't rule out him bouncing back; this easy 2m to suit
12	Harvard Guy Bay J:Kieren Buckley T:Eddie & Patrick Harty	J:Kieren Buckley T:Eddie & Patrick Harty	154	—	/66875	125	133	115	28d	—	—	+16	19.8	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Rated 13lb lower than over hurdles but this trip looks on the short side
NR	Relieved Of Duties Bay J:Jack Kennedy T:Gordon Elliott	J:Jack Kennedy T:Gordon Elliott	160	t	512540	131	150	145	25d	—	—	—	23.8	—	—
Grand Annual no-show; bit to prove now but handicapper giving him a chance
