4/5

Comment: Sent off favourite on first two starts; running ok in his point before falling; disappointed on subsequent start when sent off 11-10 favourite; finished eighth in a bumper on most recent start 14 days ago; that type of form may be good enough here.

Comment: Finished 24l fifth on his bumper debut and ran to a similar enough level next time out; that is reasonable form in the context of this race; Danny Gilligan now takes the ride which could be a clue to his chance.

17/2

Comment: Won a point-to-point by 10l on his third attempt; has been disappointing since running under rules and was most recently beaten by 44l when sent off at 200-1 in a beginners' chase (3m, gd-yld); returns to hurdles here and could possibly play a role.

Comment: Her seven starts under rules make her one of the most experienced of the contenders; she finished a 25l fifth of eight on her debut for her current stable last time out at Tramore; prior to that she was running on the Flat to little effect; more improvement needed.

Comment: Cost E60,000 at Derby Sale in 2023; staying-on third on debut over 2m at Tramore suggests he wants a stiffer test and he gets it here; definite chance.

Comment: Maiden hurdle win came on good ground over two miles back in November but has won a point-to-point; effectively brought down at the first on penultimate novice hurdle start when sent off at 7-1 (3m1f, good); dropped 2lb for lesser effort latest when finishing a well beaten seventh; trip and ground may aid his chance.

19/10

Comment: Point winner, solid placed form (including behind high-class stablemate Air Of Entitlement) before runaway maiden hurdle win at Down Royal; big chance if that translates to something similar on chase debut.

Comment: Respectable form in maiden hurdles; fell when favourite on handicap debut at Fairyhouse; beaten 40l next time at Clonmel; raced keenly when third at Bellewstown; winning favourite at Cork last week; trip and ground should suit for this switch to chasing.

Comment: Won two point-to-points for Caroline McCaldin last season; winner of a maiden hurdle on good ground at Limerick in October on his second attempt; made a bright start to chasing career when second to Spinning Web at Thurles, with Beggars Rock third; return to a longer trip could make all the difference after Clonmel defeat over extended 2m.

Comment: The last of her six chase wins came over C&D last September off this mark; hasn't been at that level in four starts since; made a mistake and unseated at Tipperary three out last week; needs a return to best.

Comment: Hurdle winner has run creditably in defeat at times, including when unseating at the last behind a smart sort at Down Royal last time; needs more but not ruled out on handicap debut.

Verdict: Most appealing of those with is Minella Emperor, but he may cope with the Gordon Elliot-trained newcomer STEDE BONNET

Stede Bonnet

Jockey: Mr H C Swan Trainer: Gordon Elliott Age/Wt: 4/11-8

17/10

Comment: E75,000 Goffs Arkle purchase last year; 12th foal; brother to two winners, notably the stable's four-time scorer Shannon Royale, half-brother to five winners, including three useful performers by King's Theatre (Minella Foru, Sumkindofking and Penny Jane) dam bumper winner for Charlie Swan whose son Harry rides here for Gordon Elliott.

South Of Killerig

Jockey: T P Harney Trainer: Ross O'Sullivan Age/Wt: 5/12-0 F: 448-

5/2

Comment: Two fourth placings over hurdles last August indicated winning potential; failed to match that form in a Listowel festival bumper, soft ground may not have been ideal; experienced conditional claims a useful 7lb.

Jockey: Mr M J O'Neill Trainer: Emmet Mullins Age/Wt: 6/12-0 F: 4-

10/3

Comment: Three uneventful runs in point-to-points before fetching just 3,500GBP last December; shaped quite promisingly when keeping on for fourth behind well-fancied stablemate Clay Pigeons on bumper debut at Cork last month; rider (owner) 0-10 in bumpers, fair prospects of a breakthrough here.

Comment: Remote second in Tinahely maiden point last October; left an impression this longer trip might suit when keeping on for sixth in a 2m bumper at Clonmel in March; beaten almost 30l, so needs to find plenty of improvement.

Comment: Second foal; brother to a French Flat.hurdle/chase winner Klothilde Du Matin; dam unraced; trainer capable of having one ready first time.

Crohan Lady

16/1

Comment: Mixed form in points; Ballycrystal winner last December; ran a fine race when 66-1 third behind mares from the De Bromhead and Elliott stables on bumper debut at Cork last month; failed to improve on that when sixth in a 2m2f contest at Tipperary last week.
