Selected odds by:
Point recruit well held twice under Rules. Best avoided until sent handicapping.
Non-factor at Cork in November and Punchestown 15 days ago so makes no appeal here.
Last of nine here just after Christmas and remains a work in progress at this stage.
€150,000 purchase looked booked for second in warm Boxing Day event at Leopardstown only to fall at the last. Looks sure to go close providing feeling no ill effects of that.
Third of 18 at Clonmel and fifth of 16 efforts here the last twice suggest his day will come and looks capable of at least making the frame today.
Struggled to get competitive on hurdling debut at Cork and while his fifth of 10 at Thurles 11 days ago was better it still leaves him plenty to find.
Not completely devoid of promise in two starts to date but probably do better in handicaps further down the line.
Gelding by Windsor Knot out of a Beneficial mare. Not fluent at a number of hurdles on debut in a C&D 17-runner maiden in December and tailed off since at Cork.
Exciting French recruit was turned over at 1/4 on Irish debut at Tramore last month. Be disappointing if he doesn't make amends today.
Two very ordinary starts under Rules suggest him in deep waters again today.
Well held in three hurdle starts to date and this son of Dylan Thomas may be better suited to handicaps now.
100/1 and tailed off on debut at Punchestown. Remains best watched.
Showed nothing in three Flat starts and unseated on hurdles bow. Need to see glimpses.

Forecasts
Five O'Clock (4/7), Email Rose (10/3), Ennemi Public (6/1), Elusive Rebeldom (14/1), Presenting Dylan (20/1), Quarry Rebel (25/1), Chalky White (33/1), Shannon Fields (33/1), Low Lie The Fields (33/1), Ekanse (33/1), Double Jubilee (66/1), Chesterville (100/1), Oneknightmoreihope (100/1), Whatever Youlike (100/1), La Capacite (100/1), Youarestar (100/1), Coolnacritta (100/1)
Obviously having been turned over at 1/4 on his Irish debut FIVE O'CLOCK was a major disappointment but he can surely improve on an effort which actually doesn't give him much to find given his connections. He gets the nod ahead of Email Rose and Ennemi Public who should both be winning similar contests before the season ends.
