2nd	1	—	Onlymammycanloveme (G) Followed a better run with a poor one when pulled up in maiden chase at Fairyhouse (26f, heavy) 14 days ago, tailing off 5 out. Back over hurdles now with something to prove.	93P211	J J Slevin S Neville	7	75.7kg	12 11/1
9th	2	—	Doing It In Style (M) Improved on hurdling debut form when fourth of 14 in a mares maiden at Limerick in December. Well held completed start since but remains capable of better now switching to handicap company.	4F897/6	Keith Donoghue G P Cromwell	6	73.5kg	17 16/1
3rd	3	—	Miss Mini Bee (M) HT Winless since 2023 but again ran creditably when fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.2f, heavy) 32 days ago. Should remain competitive.	49753P-	Alan O'Sullivan P T Foley	7	72.1kg	7 6/1
11th	4	—	Syracus Du Houx (G) Fair maiden who shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when seventh in 18-runner handicap hurdle at Naas (18.8f, good to soft, 11/1) on final outing 11 months ago, reportedly returning lame.…	0B7/078-	Phillip Enright O McKiernan	8	72.1kg	19 18/1
5th	5	—	Midweek Voices (G) P Yet to fire over fences/hurdles this season. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Others more persuasive.	5-8005P	Donagh Meyler E Doyle	7	70.3kg	11 10/1
7th	6	—	Hillstar Blues (G) Showed much improved form to get off the mark on second handicap start at Thurles in November. Failed by a long chalk to back that effort up at Fairyhouse the following month, though.	1870-0P	Sean O'Keeffe S Aherne	5	69.9kg	23 22/1
4th	7	—	Kellys Corner (G) HT Ran no sort of race back over hurdles (16/1) at Punchestown (23f, heavy) in January. Hood on 1st time. Has work to do.	35P45-8	Kevin Healy C Collins	5	68.9kg	7 6/1
12th	8	—	Marlpark (G) Had little chance at the weights when fourth of 5 in minor event hurdle at Clonmel (16.9f, heavy, 200/1) on return in January. More realistic chance now returned to handicap company.	00-4PFP	Daniel King J P Ryan	7	68.9kg	26 25/1
1st	9	—	Sky And Sand (G) Failed to better the form shown in maiden company when fifth of 16 on handicap debut at Fairyhouse (20.2f, heavy, 25/1) 14 days ago. Must improve.	0-70517	Danny Gilligan R O'Sullivan	6	68.9kg	7.50 13/2
10th	10	—	Minority Interest (G) P Showed improved form to get off the mark over C&D in October. Run best excused at Punchestown (20.8f, heavy) since having lost his place when hampered approaching the straight. Remains of interest.	41805-0	Tiernan Power Roche P J Rothwell	6	68.5kg	6 5/1
—	11	—	Ag Obair Go Crua (G) FAV Pulled Up PT Successful over fences at Tramore on New Year's Day and interesting returning to hurdling from same mark.	061414	Darragh O'Keeffe J P Flavin	7	66.2kg	5 4/1
6th	12	—	Carlas Big Jim (G) C&D winner who shaped as if amiss back over hurdles at Clonmel (24f, heavy, 14/1) 9 days ago, stopping quickly after being headed 3 out.	5/P609F-	Kevin A Murphy L J Archdeacon	8	65.3kg	13 12/1
8th	13	—	Ordered Lives (M) HT Well beaten on final 2 starts in 2024 but has gone well fresh before, so no forlorn hope in a refitted hood back from 18 months off.	PS300/8-	Michael Kenneally M P Fitzgerald	11	63.5kg	51 50/1
