28/1

Fair hurdler. First run since leaving Philip Hobbs when pulled up in cross country event at Punchestown (25f, heavy) 18 days ago. Needs to leave that well behind.

Save Us Avis⁷⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr P C Bannon⁽⁷⁾| T: P Flood

40/1

Won a small-field point in December but that was only her second success in 19 starts in that sphere. Likely best to look elsewhere.

Form: 623U41

Desert Heather⁷⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr Turlough O'connor⁽⁷⁾| T: T O'Connor

33/1

Third in point on debut in December. Worth a betting check now switching to a hunter.

Form: 3

Forecasts

Saint Benedict (4/7), Fiston Du Mou (9/2), Complete Sizing (15/2), Bold Hero (11/1), Clounts Glory (18/1), Da Boy Charlie (28/1), Precious Bounty (28/1), Desert Heather (33/1), Pyrios (40/1), Save Us Avis (40/1), Furioso Des Bordes (66/1), Jack Wade (125/1), William Tyndale (200/1), Lady Violet (250/1)

A repeat of the form Saint Benedict showed last time will likely be enough to see him get off the mark here. The Michael Winters-trained point winner Clounts Glory is interesting, particularly if the betting speaks for her. Fiston du Mou is another last-time-out winner between the flags who could be up to making an impact.
