Givehertilxmas
Maiden went closest when just denied over 1m at Bellewstown in October off 57 but didn't build on that next time at Gowran where heavy ground may not have suited; made unremarkable AW debut here last time when tenth of 14 under Colin Keane; others more likely.

AW winner in Britain, but is yet to hit form for this yard; okay 4.25l sixth behind Lahore Da King over C&D last time under today's claiming rider; more required.

Lahore Da King
Off the mark over C&D last time under today's rider with a comfortable victory despite drifting right; had a number of today's rivals behind him; carries 7lb more now but there could be more to come

Heart Of Darkness
Sole win came in a 6f maiden here in April last year; regressive this year but fair fourth in a 1m handicap here on penultimate; extended 1m2f was too far last time; blinkers go on now back at 7f.

Profit Surge
Maiden made a very promising stable debut back from a break over 1m here last time when taking the runner-up spot; up 3lb but rider's claim negates that; good draw and entitled to improve on first run; should be thereabouts.

Beat The Devil
Narrowly denied over 1m here on penultimate off 2lb lower; another solid run over 1m here early this month when a 1.5l third of 13 (Profit Surge ahead of him that day); worth a go at 7f and good claimer takes off 7lb; in the mix.

Lorr's Girl
Record of 1-22 with her win coming at Cork last year over 7f off 1lb lower; cheekpieces worn over C&D the last day are now left off after she finished a disappointing 12th of 14; new headgear combination tried.

Drafted
First reserve; well backed to land his third AW win over C&D in October; sent off 11-8 favourite here last time but could only manage a 2.75l fourth behind Lahore Da King; didn't get a clear run that day, so not ruled out with a run.

Winemaker
Third reserve; dual winner here last year but has regressed; down to an enticing mark and ran a decent race in a claimer back from a break here last month; chance if getting a run.
