2/1
Promising sort. 1 win from 3 runs this season. 6/4, career best when winning 16-runner handicap hurdle at Clonmel (16.2f, soft) 27 days ago, plenty in hand. Expected to be bang there.

11/2
Lightly-raced winner under NH rules. 9/2, didn't need to improve to win 16-runner novice hurdle at Clonmel (16.2f, soft) 27 days ago, pushed out. This demands a little more.

25/1
Fair hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Galway in October. 7/1, eighth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (16f, good to soft) 39 days ago. Booking of Queally a plus. Needs a couple of these to falter.

20/1
Some promise in trio of starts over hurdles last season but not a great deal of encouragement to glean from 2 of his 3 starts over fences in recent months. Others preferred back over timber.

Fair hurdler. 13/2, respectable seventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19.4f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Vulnerable to improvers.

11/2
Fair chaser. 2 wins from 5 runs this season. 7/1, creditable second of 10 in handicap chase at Clonmel (17.9f, soft) 27 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Can go well again.

125/1
Fair hurdler. Below form thirteenth of 27 in handicap hurdle (66/1) at Leopardstown (18f, soft). Off 23 months. First run for yard after leaving W. P. Mullins. Has work to do.

6/1
Lightly-raced maiden. Very good second of 18 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (20f, good to soft, 8/1) 100 days ago, closing all way to line. Drop back in trip not an obvious plus on that evidence.

10/1
Fair hurdler who opened account over C&D in November. Seventh of 9 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (2m) 39 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Given a break since but others appeal more for win purposes.

25/1
Fair hurdler. Creditable fourth of 15 in handicap hurdle (14/1) at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) 18 days ago, best work finish. Still, others make more appeal.

HARVEY'S QUAY justified strong support when getting off the mark in good style at Clonmel 4 weeks ago and earns the vote to follow up back in novice company with the prospect of more to come. Upping The Anti and Big Debates, returned to hurdling, head up the dangers.
