Butch Cassidy (G)
[P1]
Promising individual. 6/1, very good third of 10 in novice chase at Punchestown (23f, soft) 42 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Should have more to offer. Well in the mix.

Funiculi Funicula (G)
FAV
Useful winner at 17f over hurdles who shaped well when third of 9 in novice chase at Naas (20.2f, heavy, 8/13) on debut over fences 38 days ago. Can build on it and merits consideration.

Harvard Guy (G)
Useful winner at 20f over hurdles in 2023/24. Failed to build on chasing debut sixth when occupying same position in 7-runner novice chase at Punchestown (16.3f, soft) 42 days ago. Up in trip. Worth another chance.

Haveigotnewsforyou (G)
Fairly useful form when landing 11-runner novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f) 20 months ago. Has his fitness to prove returning for his chase debut.

King Alexander (G)
Useful 3m winning hurdler. Made a promising start in this sphere when second of 9 in novice chase at Naas (20.2f, heavy, 11/2) 38 days ago, going with enthusiasm and collared only near finish. Big shout with more to come.

Soldier In Milan (G)
Looked a good prospect when point/bumper winner but (11/2) pulled up on his chasing debut in 2m5f Leopardstown maiden in December. Well worth another chance for good yard.

The Wallpark (G)
Smart hurdler but well held in 3 maiden chases before Christmas. last month. Could still do better so not totally written off yet for leading stable.

Raffles Dolce Vita (G)
Fairly useful winning ex-French hurdler. Not disgraced in face of a stiff task when fourth of 6 to Romeo Coolio in Drinmore Novices' Chase (125/1) at Fairyhouse (20.2f, soft) 53 days ago. Possibilities.
