Better Times (G)
Modest maiden who matched his previous form when seventh of 18 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown last time. Conditions of race aren't favourable but good-value conditional booked.

Gallant George (G)
Ran to a modest level on first 2 starts in maiden hurdles, but was well beaten in similar event last time with tongue strap on and is probably one for handicaps later on.

Haveanothertry (G)
In frame on all 3 starts in maiden hurdles, taking form up a notch when 9½ lengths second of 10 to Generous Risk at Leopardstown on latest. A repeat of that will see him in the mix and Jack Kennedy picking him over a stablemate is clearly …

Lord Tobin (G)
[T1]
Showed plenty to work on when 21¾ lengths third of 25 to Saint Baco in maiden at this course in December. Has failed to see his race out both outings since, though, and Jack Kennedy deserts him for Haveanothertry. Wears first-time tongue s…

Sticktothescript (G)
FAV
Ran to a fair level when fourth of 14 in novice hurdle at Punchestown in January. Failed to back that up next time, though step back up in trip should suit even if it's difficult to see him play more than a minor role.

The Shanty Field (G)
Standout effort over hurdles (modest form) when fifth of 20 to I Started A Joke in maiden at Punchestown in January. Returns to this company after failing to make an impact in staying handicap at Leopardstown last time.

Beau Della (M)
Runner-up twice in bumpers and over hurdles (mares maiden and handicap) for Ian Jardine in 2024/25. Off 18 months prior to showing nothing on return for new connections at Naas.

Champagne Venture (M)
[P1]
Sets the standard on her third of 18 Changeyourstars at Limerick in December. Bit below that level when filling the same position at Fairyhouse last time, but well suited by the conditions of this and any sort of step forward will see her …

Fly Away Home (M)
Promising sort who has finished in the frame on both completed starts over hurdles, including when second of 11 in mares maiden at Limerick in February. Third and in process of running well when unseating last at Leopardstown last time. Re…
