Selected odds by:
Impressive winner of a Killarney bumper last May and subsequently acquired for £150,000. Yet to repay that investment in four maiden hurdle defeats but running with promise on each occasion (figures 322). Entitled to be in the mix again in new hood.
Of little account in three maiden hurdles during 2016 and now must return from an 860-day layoff, watching brief only for now.
Got off the mark at the eighth time of asking for connections winning a Wexford bumper in October on soft ground, runner-up under penalty at Cork next time. Back from a break, but work to do on previous hurdles form.
Gelding by Martaline out of a Doyoun mare, had missed two years prior to fair second behind Press Conference at Limerick on bow for this stable (2m, soft; 4-6f) in December. Likely to have leading role once more and gets 8lb from main rival.
Flat maiden, tailed off at Fairyhouse (2m, soft to heavy) last February on hurdles bow and similar tale in the autumn at Navan in the autumn; returns from latest break and plenty to find.
Unfancied and well held in a bumper at Sedgefield in January for trainer Keith Dalgleish, has joined this yard ahead of first jumping test, more needed with array of headgear added.
By Jeremy out of a Erins Isle mare, sent off at three-figure prices in both hurdles starts at Punchestown (2m4f, good) and Navan (2m, yielding) recently and twice been tailed off.
15-race maiden on the Flat, the Born To Sea mare hasn't shown enough in her turf/AW efforts to warrant suggestion she'll be a first-time scorer over jumps.
Cost €18,000 bred to stay at least 2m4f, she has been beaten wide margins so far at Punchestown (2m6f) and Navan (2m) in her two maiden hurdle starts and has been unfancied in both instances.
Not sold €9,000 Goffs October 2017. Sixth foal. Sister to 1m1f-1m6f winner Masterpaver and half-sister to three more winners. Dam 7f-2m winner. Makes first start.
Hasn't shown a great deal in two starts under Rules and two in point-to-points. Faded quickly after four out last time over 2m. Has to improve considerably to figure.
Fairly Ransom mare who is a half-sister to three-time Flat winner Extra Cover. Stable have gone three years without a winner.
Seven-race maiden on the Flat, her career has been blighted by prolonged absences. Goes jumping for the first time and does at least have a couple of recent AW spins around Dundalk to aid fitness.
Placed just once from nine starts but stayed on into fourth last month over 2m3f at this track. Was still going well at Limerick of 2m5f since when falling at the last. Drop to 2m not a certain plus.
Gold Well mare has failed to complete in three point-to-points so far (fell on debut, twice pulled up since). Makes rules bow and perhaps best watched for now.
Daughter of Mahler out of an Alderbrook mare. Closely related to Ms Parfois and Sutton Place. She stayed on for 6L third at Ballinrobe (2m, good to yielding) on debut in August but two mid-winter runs at Gowran and Limerick failed to see progress.
Gelding by Muhaymin out of a Tagel mare. Unimpressive at Cork and Gowran Park so far under rules, plenty to find (First Reserve).
100-1 and twice finished well down the field at this track 2m-2m3½f this year since joining current trainer, stiff task (Second Reserve).

Annamix was turned over at odds-on at Limerick over Christmas on her debut for Willie Mullins. He was back from two years off and may be sharper now but that form doesn't look very strong and he may settle for second-best again with RAYA TIME preferred here. Henry De Bromhead's charge has run into some good animals in a three-race maiden hurdle career to date, including Ballymore winner City Limits and Martin Pipe second Dallas Des Pictons, and can open his account now. Owenacurra Lass showed better form in bumpers late last year while Castlebellingham has run well at this track already.
