Selected odds by:
Has returned to the track in good form with three promising runs this month. Will look to build on his second of 12 at Clonmel recently and a major player in this contest.
Off the mark at the third attempt over the larger obstacles when landing a Tramore beginners contest earlier this month, beating Theatre Run ½L. Open to plenty of improvement and a leading player.
Popular veteran, seen more often on the AW at Dundalk of late. One from 16 starts over fences and most recent chase start fizzled out when never troubling the leaders at Thurles in November. Needs a couple to falter.
Desperate form in eight starts over the larger obstacles and has failed to complete in three of his last four efforts over fences. Others look open to more improvement.
Form has somewhat diminished since entering the veteran stages of his career. One from 16 over fences and unlikely to be making any significant impact in this contest.
Without a win in nine chase starts. Sending out mixed signals in a number of starts over fences since January. First-time tongue tie may assist and hold possible place claims.
Seven-race maiden over the larger obstacles and well held in a number of starts since the turn of the year. First time blinkers unlikely to bring about the required amount of progression needed to land a blow here.
Put a number of poor beginners chase efforts behind him when running Holly Flight to ¾L on handicap debut at Killarney earlier this month. Looks a progressive type and shortlisted here.
Form since winning at Clonmel over 14 months ago tailed off dramatically towards the end of 2018. Best days appear to be behind him.
Not getting any younger and form has a regressive look. Racing 16lb lower than last winning mark and unlikely to be improving at his age.
Forecasts
Whatsinthecorner (2/1), Tiantu (10/3), Dundeedy Lad (4/1), Home Place (9/1), Ballybrowney Walk (10/1), Shake The Bucket (14/1), Hard Bought (14/1), Sanibel Island (25/1), Betterthanalright (25/1), Afatcat (33/1)
The Paul Power-trained TIANTU looks a progressive sort and can gain the upper hand here to build on a win on his third chase start at Tramore earlier in the month. The Getaway gelding making his handicap debut here can get the better of a couple of potential improvers in the shape of Whatsinthecorner and Killarney second, Dundeedy Lad.
