The Rebel County
Point winner easily won a Tipperary hunter chase in May last year; has been hit or miss since, but one of his better efforts came at Downpatrick last month when taking third (3m, good), making a mistake at two out; way below that level over hurdles at Limerick last time; return to fences should help.

Huntsgrove
Winner of a Sligo maiden hurdle in May last year (2m4f, good); beat precious few rivals in four beginners' chases to date; pulled up at Tramore when badly hampered at the first last time; others preferred.

Won a pair of chases for Charles Byrnes, the latest of them over three years ago; not shown much in hunter chases for this yard and weakened when tried in blinkers in a handicap last time.

Kilkee Bay
Underwhelming in opening two chase starts before taking a big step forward at Roscommon (2m6f, yielding to soft) to shed his maiden tag convincingly off 90 under today's rider following the reapplication of blinkers; a repeat of that will see him go very close, but overall form suggests that is not a sure thing.

Stretchemout
Winning point-to-pointer got off the mark under rules in a 2m5f Sligo beginners' chase in October (good to yielding) for Gordon Elliott; failed to build on that in three runs afterwards and no sign of a revival over hurdles at Limerick on his stable debut.

Parkgarve
0-14 in all spheres; has tended to give his best at Downpatrick and was an okay 10.5l fifth of 14 on his handicap chase debut there last time (2m4f, good); needs more.

Schiehallion
0-20 at the age of nine, but broke a poor run of form back from a break when runner-up over 3m at Bellewstown in April (yielding); pulled up next time and was beaten 24l on his chasing debut at Downpatrick in a beginners' last time; others make more appeal.

My Cullen
Maiden was placed in a couple of handicap hurdles for Henrietta Knight last year; poor form in opening three chase runs for this yard and return to hurdles last time didn't help.

Oogum Boogum
Won a Punchestown handicap hurdle in May (3m, good) off 84 and placed twice since then; made a positive chase debut at Wexford (2m4f, yielding) in April when third off this mark, but pulled up at Tramore next time after making a bad mistake; could go well.

U Asking Me
Point winner and won a Clonmel handicap hurdle in 2024 (2m4f, good); not a lot to recommend him in three runs this season.

Three Tribes
Never a factor in seven hurdle starts; narrow winner of a Ballysteen point-to-point in April; pulled up on handicap chase debut at Limerick, hanging left; an unlikely winner.

Cullenwaine
Modest strike rate of 1-21 over fences; took the runner-up spot on consecutive occasions at Limerick and Tramore in April/May, both over 2m6f on good; lesser run back at Tramore when last seen over fences (2m6f, good); poor effort back over hurdles at Limerick earlier this month.

The Border Boy
Just 1-21 over hurdles; posted a decent effort on his second chase start at Tramore in May when running on well to take fourth of ten (2m6f, good); others preferred.

10/3 |
Embrace The Day
First reserve; winner of his only point-to-point and won on his eighth hurdles outing at Listowel (3m, good to yielding) off 95, running on well; he's a big danger if getting a run.

Watty Show
Second reserve; well beaten in sole point; didn't show much in maiden hurdles for Gary McGill and similar story in handicaps for this yard; can only be watched on chase debut.

- Reserve 3 / Padraig Butler

Amburana
Third reserve; 0-4 in point-to-points and winless from nine starts over hurdles; best watched on chase bow.
