Jockey: A M King Trainer: John Neilan Age/Wt: 4/11-7 F: 46-

Comment: Pulled up in pair of point-to-points; remote fourth on hurdling debut at Limerick (21.5f); best work at finish when remote sixth at Kilbeggan (2m); needs handicaps and step up in trip.

Killeaney Bear

Jockey: C M Quirke Trainer: Andrew Slattery Age/Wt: 4/11-7

Comment: Three-time winner on the Flat over 1m1f on a sound surface and rated 76; third to subsequent Grade 1-winning hurdler Hello Neighbour on last Flat start at Roscommon; big player if translating that form to timber after a break.

Comment: 82-rated on the Flat after maiden win at Bellewstown (1m4f, good) last month; made calamitous hurdles debut here (2m) in October (keen, mistakes, slipped badly and burst blood vessel); surely capable of better than that.

Sixtripleeight

Jockey: D J Gilligan Trainer: Gordon Elliott Age/Wt: 4/11-7 F: F9-

Comment: Disputing fourth when falling two out in Gowran maiden hurdle won by odds-on stablemate on debut; behind Los Toldos when ninth of 19 here (16.5f) on latest; still early days for top yard and should improve.

Comment: Ordinary enough on the Flat (rated 64 on AW) but outran large odds when fifth of 15 here on hurdling debut (2m, soft) last month, 2l behind Yosemite Gold; won't need to improve much to play a leading role.

Tyder

Jockey: P K Donovan Trainer: Andrew Slattery Age/Wt: 4/11-7 F: 5-

Comment: 14-race maiden was only beaten 1l on the Flat at Dundalk in March; hasn't built on that but sole hurdles effort at Killarney last August was full of promise when fifth behind now 123-rated Teriferma; not discounted.

Comment: 74-rated Flat maiden in Britain for William Haggas; no show first two hurdle outings at Limerick; ran much better in new headgear combination when fourth of 15 at this course (16.5f, soft) last month; enters the discussion.

Jockey: Mr P J Cody Trainer: Kieran Purcell Age/Wt: 4/11-7 F: 70-

Comment: Well beaten in three Flat maidens; showed promise when seventh behind subsequent Cheltenham Festival winner Puturhandstogether at this course (15.5f, soft) in December; backed from 100-1 into 20-1 when disappointing at Punchestown next time.

Due Course

Jockey: K M Donoghue Trainer: Gavin Cromwell Age/Wt: 7/11-10 F: 16080- OR: 108

Comment: Two-time hurdles winner last year including over this trip off 99 at Punchestown (good); held off this mark over today's C&D afterwards and been chasing since to little avail; probably has a bit to find at the weights on hurdles return.

Jockey: D Meyler Trainer: Noel Meade Age/Wt: 5/11-9 F: 265U2- OR: 107

Comment: Won Downpatrick maiden last autumn and a solid handicap run there next time; back from underwhelming start to chasing career with good second in 2m6f Down Royal novice handicap hurdle last month (good); cheekpieces left off on latest now reinstated.

T Or Coffey

Jockey: Sam Ewing Trainer: Paul Mulligan Age/Wt: 4/10-9 F: 30049- OR: 101

Comment: Modest Flat maiden was a fine third on hurdling debut at Killarney last August but hasn't progressed, dropping away tamely at Kilbeggan last time; previous Down Royal run over this trip not without merit so not one to totally rule out.

Kingkong Ciergues

Jockey: Reserve 1 Trainer: P J Rothwell Age/Wt: 5/10-7 F: 0024- OR: 91

Comment: First reserve; point-to-point winner but little of note hurdling until much-improved when just denied over this trip at Fairyhouse in February (soft); not quite at same level in similar Gowran contest following month but remains off interest if handling these quicker conditions.

Jockey: D Meyler Trainer: Ross O'Sullivan Age/Wt: 5/11-10 F: 68044- OR: 96

Comment: Hints of ability in maidens and opening 2m4f handicap efforts off this mark have merit; perhaps unlucky not to finish a little closer when fourth in 17-runner Punchestown contest and lost shoe and suffered overeach injury when fourth in a competitive Navan contest in early March; better ground may suit; one to consider if staying longer trip.

Jockey: J J Slevin Trainer: Timothy Doyle Age/Wt: 8/11-10 F: 1/00- OR: 96

Comment: Won 2m6f handicap on her debut for Gordon Elliott at Downpatrick in 2023; off for a year when making no impression in Tramore beginners' chase last May and again no show on last month's return over 2m3f at Naas; hard to assess but step up in trip should suit.

Comment: Both hurdle wins have been at 3m on decent ground, including at Clonmel last October; had looked in handicapper's grasp and belatedly tried over fences at Wexford last month when well held; down 3lb since last hurdles run and returns to better ground so don't rule out.
