Much better chaser; trip on the short side but 31lb lower hurdles mark can't be sniffed at
7	Ballycashin b Danny Mullins · Anthony Mullins	Danny Mullins · Anthony Mullins	155	h	874P55	103	119	111	15d	—	—	+2	17.7	4/1 20%
Maiden hurdler seems to have plateaued and opposable off this mark
9	Pipers Boreen b Conor McNamara · Shane Nolan	Conor McNamara · Shane Nolan	152	p	200821	100	112	49	28d	—	—	+20	28.5	15/2 12%
Improving mare up 8lb for Punchestown win but bold bid expected
6	Doyenna b J J Slevin · Mrs Lorna Fowler	J J Slevin · Mrs Lorna Fowler	158	—	85-P60	106	116	107	67d	—	—	+8	16.2	17/2 11%
Best form is all at 2m on better ground; plenty to find from C&D run at Christmas
8	Circus Act b Gavin Brouder(5) · J A Nash	Gavin Brouder(5) · J A Nash	152	b	5-7802	100	119	53	—	—	—	+8	14.4	10/1 9%
One to consider although this a stiff enough test as she probably wants
10	Lovely Reaction b Mark Walsh · Thomas Mullins	Mark Walsh · Thomas Mullins	149	—	P3-446	97	119	56	63d	—	—	+4	14.8	6/1 14%
Best form at shorter; others likely stronger stayers in these conditions
5	Bestaline gr Jack Kennedy · Gordon Elliott	Jack Kennedy · Gordon Elliott	163	p	399333	111	117	87	16d	—	—	+18	23.5	12/1 8%
Best run yet when 3rd in similar Gowran contest last month in cheekpieces; one to consider
11	Magic Conqueror b Mr Alan O'Sullivan(7) · Michael G Kennedy	Mr Alan O'Sullivan(7) · Michael G Kennedy	147	—	0-223P	95	122	98	18d	—	—	+9	12.2	20/1 5%
Consistent maiden until poor Clonmel run latest; going concerns
13	Blossom De Mai b Conor Owens(7) · P J Rothwell	Conor Owens(7) · P J Rothwell	140	tp	00-15P	88	118	45	53d	—	—	+7	10.5	20/1 5%
Recent Clonmel run very disappointing (didn't jump well); 2lb wrong
1	Champella ch Tom Harney(7) · Ross O'Sullivan	Tom Harney(7) · Ross O'Sullivan	168	—	13156-	116	115	98	357d	—	—	+22	25.3	25/1 4%
Back from year's absence so top-weight likely best watched
3	Bella Bliss b Brian Hayes · John C McConnell	Brian Hayes · John C McConnell	165	t	011230	113	123	98	129d	—	—	+24	25.9	33/1 3%
First run over hurdles since Galway Festival and opposable on this ground

Hasn't recovered from ratings hike over a year ago; handicapper relenting but opposable
NR	Game And Glory b TBC · P J Rothwell	· P J Rothwell	146	p	269307	94	120	87	50d	—	—	—	12.5	—
Recent runs disappointing so clearly needs to bounce back and ground probably not ideal
