Better Times (G)
Scored over hurdles at Downpatrick in March and good fourth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (23f, good to soft) following month. Running below form when unseating at Punchestown last time. Has background in points and worth betting che…

Black Soul (G)
Point winner would've outrun huge odds if not for taking a late fall on chase debut at Tramore last month. Respected if none the worse.

Drop A Threat (G)
[HT]
Winning pointer reached a fair level over hurdles. Below expectations when only fourth of 12 in novice chase at Tramore (2¾m, good to soft, 5/4) on debut over fences 25 days ago but likely capable of better for top yard.

Following Orders (G)
Career-best effort when second in a big-field Roscommon novice in August, but below that level all 3 runs since, pulled up in a novice hurdle at Bellewstown (17f, good to soft, 11/1) 27 days ago. Was runner-up in a point but others make mo…

Gunnery Sergeant (G)
[PT]
Ex-pointer was runner-up in maiden hurdles at Fairyhouse and Downpatrick in recent months. Never dangerous when fifth of 12 in novice chase at Tramore (2¾m, good to soft) on debut over fences 25 days ago but he should improve.

In The Trenches (G)
Long-standing maiden but produced a solid effort when fifth of 12 in handicap chase (10/1) at Wexford (2m, good to soft) 8 days ago. Back up in trip. Probably vulnerable to improvers again.

Jerisk Star (G)
[T]
Winner of a handicap hurdle at Gowran on return. Has shaped quite well prior to unseating/falling on both chase starts so far, though might be of more interest when handicapping after this.

Leni's Law (G)
Best effort over hurdles came when fourth in 2m Leopardstown novice in March. Probably needs more to make successful start over fences.

Phoenix Arizona (G)

Maiden pointer barely scraped modest form over hurdles. Hard to fancy on chase bow.

Strange Currency (G)
Fair form on second start over hurdles but below that level since, including when fifth of 14 in minor event hurdle at Punchestown (19f, good to soft, 125/1) 16 days ago. Makes chase debut.

Warriors Wood (G)
Dual hurdles winner at up to 17f and was in the process of making an encouraging chase debut when hampered and unseating at the last at Tramore 25 days ago. Considered.

Kate Knows Best (M)
Fair winner over hurdles but took a heavy fall at the first at Clonmel on chase debut. Worth betting check after 164 days off.

Rockstown Girl (M)
[T]
Career best when winning 14-runner handicap hurdle at Down Royal in March and posted a good effort back over fences when second of 16 in handicap chase at Wexford (19f, soft, 11/2) 35 days ago. Enters calculations.

[H]
Much improved when runner-up in a listed mares novice chase at Thurles (21.5f) in February, for all there was an element of picking up the pieces. Progressed to win a 6-runner handicap hurdle at Limerick (2m, heavy) 29 days ago and she mak…
