Kamino Bello
2m2f (good) Sligo maiden hurdle winner is rated 119; below best on return from a 200-day break at Fairyhouse on latest in November; may improve for that but might prefer quicker ground than this.

Tatateo
Dual-purpose; 1-9 over hurdles and rated 115; had been in decent form on the Flat before an okay effort when beaten 6.5l behind Spinola Bay on return to hurdling at Leopardstown eight days ago; better off at weights now and could close the gap.

Spinola Bay
Upwardly mobile hurdler has returned from a long layoff with back-to-back 2m handicap wins at Navan (sft-hvy) and Leopardstown (yielding); now rated 113 and there could still be more to come from this 6yo; big chance if this doesn't come too soon.

10/1 |
Glenrush Bay
First sign of ability when a 23l second of 17 in a Thurles maiden hurdle in November; official rating of 110 may flatter him, however, and he needs more to be competitive in this company.

Under Cover
Modest form in point-to-points in 2023; soundly beaten in a Fairyhouse bumper in October and Navan maiden hurdle in December; hard to fancy on the evidence of those two efforts.

Youlita
Point-to-point winner; off the mark at the third attempt in maiden hurdles when last seen at Downpatrick in May (2m3f, good), earning a rating of 108; worth a market check on seasonal reappearance for shrewd yard.

Youneedabitofluck
Left previous modest efforts behind when a keeping on 4l second of 14 behind a Willie Mullins-trained favourite at Tramore (2m, soft) in November; handed a rating of 107 after that and could go well if backing up that promising effort.

Zuzukel
Maiden was narrowly denied off 103 in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown (2m, heavy) in November; best form is in testing conditions, so needs to prove his effectiveness on this better ground.
