Selected odds by:
Gelding by Milan out of a Danehill Dancer mare. Cost €38,000 as a three-year-old. Wears a tongue-strap on debut and market likely to be the best guide here.
Arcadio gelding out of an Oscar mare. Inexpensive €6,500 purchase as a three-year-old. Unlikely to play a part in the finish.
Running well without success finishing runner-up on a number of occasions earlier in the season. Others appear to be progressing at a quicker rate.
Beaten just 7L in a bumper at Clonmel on debut but looked a little overwhelmed when finishing down the pack in a Wexford maiden hurdle last month. Place claims dropping in trip.
Regressive 50-rated Flat handicapper and makes his hurdling debut here. Yard just two from 19 with their hurdlers this term. Looks opposable.
Dual bumper winner in France. Likely to be popular in the market with the yard holding a 17% strike rate with their debutantes in the last five years.
Useful 82-rated handicapper on the Flat but finished down the field on maiden hurdle debut at Navan in September. Worth a market check.
Beat Hollow gelding out of a Danehill mare. Cost €36,000 as a three-year-old. Yard without a winner from 10 runners this term.
Well held in a couple of maiden hurdle starts for Joseph O'Brien. Yard without a winner in 23 starts since April and without success in 18 hurdle starters.
Ineffective 49-rated handicapper on the Flat for trainer Ed Walker. Not seen for over 18-months and best watched on stable debut here.
Scorpion foal, finished ninth of 13 in bumper at Kilbeggan on debut in August before another heavy defeat at Roscommon last month. Likely to struggle in this big field.
Jeremy gelding out of a High Chaparral mare. Not seen since finishing well down the field in a Naas bumper in February. Plenty to find in this contest.
Regressing 62-rated handicapper on the Flat without a win in 11 starts. First time tongue-tie unlikely to bring about the required amount of progression needed to land a blow here.
Useful 78-rated handicapper on the Flat winning one of his eight starts on the level. Open to plenty of improvement based on his two maiden hurdle starts recently at Wexford and Gowran Park.
Masterofthehorse filly out of a Green Forest mare. Well held in a couple of starts for trainer Paul Power. Likely to struggle looking at evidence to hand.
Filly by Flemensfirth out of a Galileo mare. Yard currently struggling a little being without a winner in 19 starts this season. Looks vulnerable in this company.
Daughter of Arcadio out of a Flemensfirth mare. Well held and never nearer on sole start for trainer-John Nicholson in August. Watching brief on stable debut.
Two-race maiden who has been sent off at 66/1 and 100/1, subsequently running as expected. First time tongue-tie unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role here.
Has produced a number of laboured runs in a five-race bumper campaign. Plenty of work to do on hurdling debut based on what she has shown so far.
Casamento filly, cost 15,000 gns as a foal and 5,000 gns as a yearling. Well beaten and no impression in three career bumper starts to date. Hard to construct much of a case for the filly on hurdling debut.
Hints of improvement when fifth of 14 at Kilbeggan when last seen in June but needs to raise overall performance to be considered here.
First Reserve: Nothing of note in a couple of maiden hurdles last term, well down the pack on each occasion. No impression in a two bumpers since and needs to improve dramatically here.
Second Reserve: Gelding by Muhaymin out of a Tagel mare. Pulled up on sole point-to-point start in March and best watched if making the line-up.
Third Reserve: Gelding by Vinnie Roe out of a Tarrawarra mare. Fell at the fourth on debut in a Tipperary maiden last month.

Dual French-bumper winner ECLAIR DE BEAUFEU can get off the mark on debut for the Gordon Elliott, Davy Russell combination and powerful owners Gigginstown House Stud. Challow looks a solid and consistent sort hit the frame on good ground last month and can go well again along with Winston Wolfe and Polished Steel.
