Roscommon runner-up; disappointing twice since though and has a question to answer here
8	Newtown Rambler Bay J:Mr J H Williamson T:Henry De Bromhead	J:Mr J H Williamson T:Henry De Bromhead	158	ht	2-P2	-	106	85	35d	—	—	-10	9.2	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Improvement likely and the step up in trip is probably a plus; definite contender
3	Artic Lane Bay J:Mr C W Reddy(4) T:Declan Queally	J:Mr C W Reddy(4) T:Declan Queally	158	—	12-422	-	-	-	22d	—	—	-19	8.4	0.63/1	5/2 29%
Good run at Clonmel last time and likely to be a major factor here on his hurdles debut
1	Will Wilde Grey J:Mr D Doyle T:Liz Doyle	J:Mr D Doyle T:Liz Doyle	166	t	/130-8	-	111	64	33d	—	—	-14	5.7	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Previous course form in his favour and should be capable of a bold show in this company
6	DrumcLiff Bay Bay J:Mr D McGill T:Mark Michael McNiff	J:Mr D McGill T:Mark Michael McNiff	158	—	F44/4-	-	106	-	495d	—	—	-7	2.7	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Ran okay at Downpatrick on rules debut last summer but off 495 days and others preferred
4	Boston Rover Bay J:Mr J M Halford T:Gordon Elliott	J:Mr J M Halford T:Gordon Elliott	158	—	5	-	97	-	20d	—	—	-4	1.4	4.00/1	16/1 6%
No surprise if he improved significantly for debut and played some sort of hand here
10	Final Flutter Bay J:Mr I Ryan(4) T:Mrs Jessica Magnier	J:Mr I Ryan(4) T:Mrs Jessica Magnier	151	—	05	-	96	44	105d	—	—	-3	1	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Good Kilbeggan run; likely to do better in handicaps later on but not a forlorn hope here
5	Carricktriss Bay J:Miss Charlotte Butler(2) T:Eoin Doyle	J:Miss Charlotte Butler(2) T:Eoin Doyle	158	t	P-	-	-	-	—	—	—	-2	0.6	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Pulled up in a point at Dromahane almost a year ago for Michael Butler; best watched
7	Mighty Soldier Bay J:Mr Alan O'Sullivan T:James Andrew Fahey	J:Mr Alan O'Sullivan T:James Andrew Fahey	158	t	P-0	-	78	17	139d	—	—	-2	0.6	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Showed a glimmer of ability on rules debut in Punchestowen maiden but lacks experience
12	Tara Boe Chestnut J:Mr A P Ryan T:C Moore	J:Mr A P Ryan T:C Moore	151	h	P/6-49	-	-	-	78d	—	—	-1	0.2	25.00/1	100/1 1%
Beaten a mile in a mares bumper here in August; tried in a hood this time
11	Heading South Bay J:Mr M E McCrory(2) T:Noel C Kelly	J:Mr M E McCrory(2) T:Noel C Kelly	151	t	7-00	-	86	23	25d	—	—	-1	0.4	37.50/1	150/1 1%
No show in a Galway bumper or a Roscommon maiden hurdle since returning from an absence

Beaten a mile on debut at Roscommon and makes no appeal here on that evidence
