No wins from 12 starts on the Flat, leaving him with a rating of 48; well beaten in a Ballinrobe claimer last month; others make more appeal.

Boston Benjamin
Narrowly won at Dundalk on Flat handicap debut in a first-time tongue tie (7f); below that level at the Curragh next time and gelded since; of obvious interest now hurdling given his Flat rating of 75 and connections; hood goes on.

Big price at Thurles in a 1m maiden and ran accordingly; gave trouble at the start and withdrawn in two intended starts since then; goes hurdling now but others preferred.

Divelment
Placed twice in Roscommon maidens at Roscommon last year and again twice on AW earlier this year; claimed for 5,000euros after disappointing in Ballinrobe claimer in May; not too bad in a Down Royal maiden last time; rated 63 on the Flat and not discounted.

Minella Rockett
Beaten a length and then a head in a pair of 1m maidens at Dundalk in November; too keen in early stages on handicap debut at Navan over 1m2f in May; well beaten in a maiden back at Dundalk last time; holds the top Flat rating (80) in this field and is courtesy of those efforts; big player.

Good start to handicapping on the Flat when runner-up over 1m at this course (yielding); okay fourth at Leopardstown next time (1m, soft to heavy); brings a Flat rating of 65 to this first attempt over hurdles and he could play a hand.
