Meet And Greet (G)
Useful winner at 20f over hurdles. Creditable fifth of 9 in novice chase (8/1) at Naas (20.2f, heavy) 34 days ago. Makes handicap chase debut but others look better treated at these weights.

Brave Fortune (G)
FAV
First run since leaving P. M. J. Doyle when only fourth of 5 in novice chase (7/1) at Fairyhouse (21.2f, soft) 36 days ago. Stable having good spell so could bounce back on his handicap chase debut.

Rising Dust (G)
Very much on the up for his current yard, bagging a fourth success with a career best in 16-runner handicap chase here (25.3f, good to soft) 29 days ago when storming clear run-in. Up another 15 lb but expected to be bang there once more.

Course winner. Pulled up in handicap chase (16/1) here (21.6f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Tongue strap goes back on with something to prove.
