Elsannah (M)
[T]
Dual winner of staying handicaps in 2023 and shaped as if better for the run, back from long absence for new yard, when seventh over shorter trip at Navan 10 days ago. This should reveal more.

Jack Gilligan | P J Gilligan | 9 | 75.3 kg |

Shellrunforbriggs (M)
[H]
Posted career best when second of 6 in listed mares novice chase over this trip at Thurles 40 days ago. Hood back on and not out of things returned to hurdles.

Darragh O'Keeffe | M Winters | 5 | 75.3 kg |

Westernersunrise (M)
[P1T]
Made the frame on a couple of occasions this term but proved disappointing at this course latest. Cheekpieces on first time. Others are more convincing.

Michael Kenneally | J Fahey | 7 | 73.5 kg |

Classy Cc (M)
[BT]
Produced a personal best, in first-time blinkers, when good second of 17 in handicap hurdle at Naas (2m, soft) 27 days ago. Tries longer trip now and could be a player.

Ricky Doyle | M Brassil | 6 | 73 kg |

Lovely Reaction (M)
Ultimately proved disappointing over fences this season following a lay-off and while on a handy mark for hurdles return, it's hard to be confident that she'll capitalise.

Aidan Kelly | T Mullins | 8 | 73 kg |

Walk In The Clouds (M)
[P]
Much improved, in first-time cheekpieces, when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle over longer trip at Naas 27 days ago by ¾ length from Annie Button, always holding on. 7 lb higher now but must enter calculations.

Finn Brickley | C Collins | 6 | 73 kg |

Westandtogether (M)
FAV
Lightly-raced mare who posted a career best when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle over this trip at Navan last month, keeping on well. 8 lb higher now but she remains low mileage.
|
Danny Gilligan | Mrs D Foster | 6 | 72.1 kg |

| 5th | 8 | — |
Nashville Notions (M)
Won a maiden hurdle at Sligo last June but below that level since, albeit she was still in touch when unseating rider 4 out at Cork last time. Others more persuasive.
|
Liam Quinlan | P Kiely | 6 | 71.7 kg |

Roccabaker (M)
[T]
Off the mark over this sort of trip at Tramore in January and backed that up, off 9 lb higher, when third of 13 at Punchestown later that month. Found run of good form coming to a halt at Clonmel since but could well bounce back here.
|
Cian Quirke | D H Kelly | 8 | 71.2 kg |

17/2

| 10th | 10 | — |
Peppers Corner (M)
Diamond Boy mare who has offered little in 4 hurdle runs, last of 7 in maiden at Punchestown 55 days ago, weakening quickly. Needs this switch to handicaps to spark major improvement.
|
Ben Harvey | Edward F Power | 7 | 68.5 kg |

Rebel Cowgirl (M)
Belatedly off the mark when taking 16-runner handicap hurdle (11/1) over shorter trip at Punchestown 41 days ago, responding well. Raised 8 lb since but warrants respect.
|
Sean O'Keeffe | M A Cahill | 7 | 68.5 kg |

Cooltubrid Eva (M)
[P]
Still looking for first success and well below best in both starts this term. Tumbling down the weights but remains to be seen if she can capitalise. Cheekpieces back on.
|
Mike O'Connor | Diarmuid P Ryan | 7 | 68 kg |

| 1st | 13 | — |
Dolly Watkins (M)
[PT]
Back from 11 months off when good second of 18 in handicap hurdle over shorter trip at Down Royal 14 days ago. Entitled to improve on that and is not taken lightly.
|
Simon Torrens | A A Howard | 7 | 68 kg |

| 3rd | 14 | — |
Millie B (M)
[TP]
Multiple point winner but has made little impact since switched to handicapping over hurdles in recent months. Will need significant improvement to defy current mark.
|
Paddy Hanlon | Miss E Lalor | 8 | 65.3 kg |

Annie Button (M)
FAV
Left previous form behind when ¾-length second of 11 to Walk In The Clouds in handicap hurdle at Naas 27 days ago. Raised 3 lb since but is not taken lightly.

Jordan Gainford | P Flood | 6 | 64.9 kg |

Chemdawg (M)
[B]
Remains a maiden over jumps and has failed to complete the last twice. Blinkers back on. Hard to fancy on recent evidence. 1 lb out of the handicap.
