Summer Melody
Bumper winner in November 2022 but hit and miss since, soon beaten on last month's Galway comeback; remains opposable.

Toor Khov
Rewarded for consistency when winning 3m maiden here in May; veterinary excuse when well held on return to action at Gowran last month on handicap debut so not one to rule out.

Mexican Moonshine
Roscommon maiden winner (2m4f) has contested novices since, fair fourth at Cork and well held in better-class Listowel Listed; may have more to offer now entering handicaps.

Camino Rock
Finally got off the mark when winning 3m Kilbeggan handicap in this headgear combination in September; softer ground at Listowel may not have been ideal and drops in trip here.

Our Boy Rocky
Progressed on each of three maiden runs last term, notably over today's trip, making most in modest Thurles affair on soft-to-heavy; too keen and didn't get home on handicap debut at Fairyhouse at Easter and given time off since so may just need this.

Jokers 'N' Clowns
Point-to-point winner is 0-5 hurdling, Gowran maiden second her standout run; didn't jump well when last seen at Killarney in May and likely best watched here on return and first attempt in a handicap.

Mickie Angel
Pick of three maiden hurdle runs for Denis Hogan when well beaten second over 3m at Limerick last term (heavy), having forced it; absent since May so market may prove best guide on yard/handicap debut.

16-race maiden and put up his best performance when fifth in a competitive 2m handicap at Galway in September; not as effective twice last month at same venue though so needs to improve.

Kobalt St Georges
Easily the pick of three maiden runs came when seventh of 20 in good-class Cork 4yo contest last term on soft-to-heavy; nowhere near that level on Roscommon return in September on better ground; return to softer ground should suit for handicap debut.

On Your Way
The best of five maiden runs when third over 2m at Limerick last time as favourite; easy enough in market when halfway faller on recent handicap debut at Cork.

True Light
Debut bumper winner for Willie Mullins in 2022; hasn't looked progressive in maiden hurdles for current yard over various trips and not an obvious one to make an immediate impact in handicaps.

Never counted after being hampered at the start on handicap debut at Killarney over the summer when trained by Mouse Morris; remains unexposed for new yard.

Lough Nigara
Pleasing handicap debut in March when clear third in 2m7f Punchestown contest won by an improver but beaten favourite both starts afterwards; left with plenty to do at Thurles and then weakened tamely at Ballinrobe; back from seven months' break and slight drop in trip could suit, ground too.

Nothing in his three maiden hurdle outings and never sighted when tailed off on handicap debut in first-time hood last month at Limerick.
