Fair third in a small-field handicap last time, will need to raise her game to feature
23	Johnny Cakes ch J:Simon Torrens T:P J Rothwell	J:Simon Torrens T:P J Rothwell	142	p	13-504	85	113	76	—	—	—	+5	10.1	18/1 5%
Only one win from 18 starts over hurdles, mild encouragement from recent Punchestown run

Point winner, most recent maiden outing was poor, up in trip now, may find his level
1	Insouciant Dallier b J:Miss H Heffernan(7) T:James Andrew Fahey	J:Miss H Heffernan(7) T:James Andrew Fahey	166	—	/0P-81	109	102	31	—	—	—	+12	15.7	40/1 2%
Had this rider aboard when winning a Sligo maiden on yard debut, could be on the upgrade
12	Arabian King ch J:Calum Hogan(7) T:E McNamara	J:Calum Hogan(7) T:E McNamara	154	t	9046P-	97	112	96	—	—	—	+10	12.4	40/1 2%
Best known as a four-time AW winner, 1-17 over hurdles, no recent form, has changed stable

25	Venturevango b J:Conor Stone-Walsh T:Ian Patrick Donoghue	J:Conor Stone-Walsh T:Ian Patrick Donoghue	140	p	9000	83	76	-	—	—	—	+7	8.8	80/1 1%
Weak form in maidens, perhaps some chance she will find her level now, cheekpieces added
4	Mon Coeur b J:Ryan Treacy T:Joseph G Murphy	J:Ryan Treacy T:Joseph G Murphy	163	—	5/54-P	106	114	88	—	—	—	+12	14.6	66/1 1%
