Place De La Nation (M)
FAV
Very useful hurdler (fifth in Triumph Hurdle) who landed the odds in 8-runner novice hurdle at Thurles (22.5f, good to soft) 42 days ago, driven out. Back down in trip. Very much the one to beat.

Moody Girl (M)
Fair maiden hurdler but only seventh of 8 in novice hurdle at Tramore (21f, soft, 11/2) 37 days ago. Back down in trip with more needed.

Shesakindofmagic (M)
Fair winner at 16f in bumpers. Tailed-off last of 10 to Bambino Fever in Grade 2 mares bumper at Leopardstown (16f, good to soft, 33/1). Makes hurdles debut and this is no easy ask.

Working Away (M)
[P1T]
Tongue strap on for 1st time, good third of 8 in novice hurdle (5/1) at Tramore (21f, soft) 37 days ago. Down in trip. Cheekpieces on for 1st time and no forlorn hope.

Highland Crystal (F)
Promising Crystal Ocean filly who went 2-2 in this sphere in 12-runner juvenile hurdle (evens) at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) 34 days ago by 6½ lengths from Tralee Girl. Open to further improvement. A player.
