Selected odds by:
Has won a couple of times over hurdles most recently at Thurles in November. Second of 11, not beaten far here on Thursday.
Third of 20 in competitive Cork handicap hurdle last time out, though beaten 18L. Has won over this distance and has a more than capable claimer in the plate.
Hinted at a return to form last time out when third of 18, not beaten far in Limerick handicap hurdle. Has placed on two occasions at this distance.
No impression and one pace in 22L defeat in Wexford handicap hurdle. Can't offer any encouragement until handicapper relents.
Won a Kilbeggan maiden hurdle last time out, beating seven rivals on good ground earlier this month. Up 7lb for her efforts and could struggle here, though first-time cheekpieces revive interest.
11th of 22 when last seen over hurdles in Tipperary maiden in April. Has disappointed on the Flat since and best watched on handicap debut.
Well beaten or pulled up in four maiden hurdles. May have needed the run on seasonal debut when beaten 44L last time out. Significant jockey booking.
No impression, never a factor when beaten 28L last time out at Limerick on handicap debut, following disappointing runs in maiden hurdles earlier.
The fitting of cheekpieces have brought no real improvement. Back to hurdling here for the first time since October 2016. Well beaten in five career hurdle starts.
Well beaten and no impression on last three hurdle starts and is still a maiden after 16 starts at the age of eight.
Beaten over 32L in all of his six career hurdle starts, including 32L and 49L defeats in the last two starts.
12th of 14 on seasonal debut, beaten 60L. Hadn't shown any promising signs in six starts last season.
Veteran who was beaten a total of 132L in three point-to-point races when last seen in 2014. Will be a surprise if offering anything here.
Beaten a total of 161L on last two starts in a novice hurdle at Bellewstown and on handicap debut at Limerick.
First Reserve: 10th of 14, beaten 14L in Wexford handicap hurdle in May, before a 44L defeat at Cork last month.
Second Reserve: Beaten 49L at Thurles in March, before not much better in Limerick handicap hurdle last month.

Miracle Cure, Ayela and Bobby Boucher could be vying for the lead here in the early stages of the race, Emerald Honours and Brog Deas Nua in behind. Boytonrth, who has the assistance of Jockey Davy Russell and Game Pupeteer, second of 11, not beaten far here on Thursday, make the shortlist but preference is for ATHLOMAN COTTAGE, who hinted at a return to form last time out.
