Disco Dancer (M)
[P1T]
Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Navan (2m, soft, 20/1) 28 days ago. Hopes now pinned on the first-time cheekpieces helping to eke out a bit more.

Theflyingbee (M)
Course winner. Below par fifth of 13 in a Naas handicap hurdle at Naas (18.7f, heavy, 12/1) 83 days ago. Capable of a bold show if she puts her best foot forward here.

Fiver Friday (M)
FAV
Produced a career-best when landing an 18-runner handicap at the Curragh (1¼m, heavy) 15 days ago, quickening clear. Runner-up both starts in this sphere during the winter and she's a major player.

Fortunate Lighting (M)
Latest win in hurdle at Sligo in August. Could finish only eleventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (2½m, good to soft, 50/1) when last seen 6 months ago. Others are more persuasive.

Eoghan Finegan | Thomas Coyle | 8 | 72.1 kg |

Cleopatra's Needle (M)
[H]
Creditable second of 20 in handicap at Leopardstown (1m, soft, 12/1) 6 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Successful on latest start in this sphere at Galway last summer but she went up 8 lb for that.

Sean Flanagan | H Rogers | 8 | 71.2 kg |

Eastern Wind (M)
Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. Fifth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f) 36 days ago. Opposable back in this sphere.

James Smith | T G McCourt | 7 | 69.4 kg |

Fedneys Park (M)
[H]
Lightly-raced maiden who was down the field in a 24-runner handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (2½m, good to soft) 107 days ago. Readily passed over.

Darragh O'Keeffe | H De Bromhead | 6 | 67.6 kg |

Mo Ghille Mar (M)
Trailed in last of 13 in a handicap hurdle at Warwick (2m, good to soft, 25/1) 41 days ago and looks set for another struggle.

| 9th | 9 | — |
Patty O'Farrell (M)
[T]
Respectable seventh of 17 in handicap hurdle at Naas (2m, soft, 16/1) 45 days ago, finding little. Remains 7 lb above mark of last summer's Limerick success.

Sean O'Keeffe | P Maher | 8 | 64.9 kg |

Simple Things (F)
[H]
Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Navan (2m, soft, 16/1) 28 days ago. Open to improvement and she has to enter calculations.
