Aruntothequeen (M)
Talented bumper winner but has failed to meet expectations over hurdles so far, albeit contesting good Leopardstown handicaps the last twice. Drops in grade/trip here and could play a bigger role.

Darby Hill (M)
Easy winner of second start in points earlier this year but looked a longer term prospect in novice hurdle at Clonmel 4 weeks ago.

Full Of Shade (M)
From a good French jumping family and fetched €280000 after a promising second start at Auteuil 3 years ago. Huge absence to overcome but that may not prove an issue on debut for Willie Mullins.

Money Shuffler (M)
Modest maiden on the Flat who offered little in a pair of bumpers and is readily opposed on hurdles debut.

Salsinha (M)
Bumper winner and has made a good start over hurdles, placed in a listed mares novice at Thurles before proving too keen 4 months on at Fairyhouse. Can build on that and seems sure to be thereabouts.

Switch From Diesel (M)
FAV
Three-time bumper winner who also won only start on the Flat in November and has shown plenty over hurdles whilst often highly tried, taking a keen hold before fading in the mud in Leopardstown Grade 1 in February. Capable of better.
