Infrequent visitor to the track, with just four runs aged seven, but back from latest break with fortunate Listowel success in 2m1f beginners chase this month, having appeared booked for second at best. This is a good deal tougher.
Now ten-years-old and been well held in succession of Flat runs this summer, cannot be factored out completely switching to this sphere once more but yet to win in six chases and potentially would want longer trip.
Has been running consistently well this summer and winner in two of previous three starts, though both have come at trips in excess of 3m so this dramatic drop in distance does pose a new question.
A lightly-raced smart winning hurdler, she made the perfect start over fences with 5L success over 2m2f at Galway last week on return from a break and should have plenty further progress at this game.
Had become a bit frustrating for supporters but once again well supported and justified favouritism to land 2m4f beginners chase on soft ground at Kilbeggan recently. This looks a bit more demanding dropping in trip.
Flat winner who developed into a leading juvenile hurdler last season, finishing fifth in the Triumph. Held over C&D on chase bow in June, then won over 2m4f at Kilbeggan. Held every chance in Galway graded novice contest latest when fell two out.

Product Of Love has answered every question posed to date and made a winning start in this sphere in a decent Killarney contest last month, however the likely ground does present an unknown factor in the equation. MONTANA BELLE made a winning to her chasing career at Galway last week on soft ground over a longer trip and Henry De Bromhead's mare should have more to offer, ensuring she earns the vote. Landofhopeandglory was right in contention at Galway when coming down last time and, despite Geraghty looking elsewhere, isn't to be discounted hastily. The other McManus-owned runner Rock On Fruity is in fine form but this trip could prove sharp enough.
