Dream In The Park
Last year's winner off 106 (yielding to soft) under this rider, perhaps fortunate that day when better better-travelling leader fell two out; just three runs since, seventh at the Galway festival before third back over fences at that venue in October; 14.5l fourth at Thurles latest; not obviously well treated.

Truckers Cruising
Bolted up at Ayr (2m, heavy) earlier in the month when back over fences for second chase start; however, he was beaten when unseating at the final fence at Hexham 16 days ago (2m4f, heavy); in the mix with this ground to suit.

Happy Dreams
Four-time chase winner has started this season in great form in two runs over hurdles, winning by 20l around here over 2m5f on heavy ground before going down by a neck off 108 at Cork earlier this month (2m4f, soft to heavy); big chance back over fences in this form.

Mount Frisco
Goes well in heavy ground, winning a 2m Tramore novice chase in January last year and a 2m novice handicap hurdle around here later that month; out of form for some time but his distant runner-up finish under forceful tactics by today's rider in a Thurles handicap chase last time was his best run for some time (2m5f, yielding); needs more of the same.

Four-time winner under rules, sole chase win was most recent, at Gowran in February last year (2m4f, heavy); returned from a 624-day absence at Fairyhouse (2m4f, heavy) last time when tailed off; best watched for now.

Sophia Rose
Sligo maiden hurdle winner in August (2m4f, good); has placed in both beginner's chase starts, 3.5l second at Downpatrick (2m3f, yielding) before fading late on into third at Gowran latest (2m4f, heavy); chance on handicap debut.

Stoneyford Lady
Maiden hurdler has made a promising start to her chasing career; took the runner-up position in a Thurles beginners' before making the breakthrough in a handicap back there last time (2m2f, yielding); 7lb rise is not beyond her but slight question mark on this ground (29l last in a heavy-ground bumper, but took third in a soft-ground maiden hurdle).

Little Mixup
Four-time hurdles winner has off putting chase form; chase form is off-putting, once refused, twice unseated and tailed off twice in five chase runs.

Got his second hurdles win when taking a 2m3f handicap here last year off 94 (2m3f, yielding to soft); lost form since, finishing tailed off in his completed starts.

Doyen Magic
Off the mark immediately over fences when taking a 2m4f Kilbeggan handicap in July off 87 (good to yielding); returned to hurdles at this venue last time to gain her first win in that sphere with a comfortable 4l success (2m, heavy); that was her first run here, so not ruled out back here over fences.

Kilbrin Rocco
Winner of a Downpatrick handicap hurdle in April last year for Mick Winters (2m3f, good) off 88; has returned from a lengthy break for new yard and has improved in his two runs over fences, 11l fifth at Clonmel in October (2m5f, good to yielding) and 7.25l fifth at the same venue last month (2m1f, soft); needs more in this higher grade; declared for 3.11 at Limerick on Saturday.

Carlas Big Jim
Has generally struggled in runs over fences this season, and there weren't any signs of a change in fortune when the dual hurdles winner returned to that sphere at Cork last time, beaten 28l (2m4f, soft to heavy); winless over fences and hard to fancy.

Road To The Weir
No wins from 12 starts, although he did take third position at this venue in November last year (2m, heavy) in a lower grade of race; tailed off in a Sligo handicap hurdle on seasonal return and same story in a Thurles beginners' chase last time; 3lb wrong.

Dontdooddson
Veteran showed he retains the ability to compete at a modest level when winning a 0-100 handicap hurdle at Wexford in the summer (2m, good); this is a step above that and he is 12lb wrong.
