Has shown consistent form over fences, winning a maiden and performing well in Grade 3 company. Won a Grade 3 Chase at Roscommon (4/6) in field of 6 when making all 55 days ago. Can make his presence felt in this higher grade with his bold, front-running style.

Has taken well to chasing with a 2nd place in a conditions race at Gowran Park. First of 7 in maiden chase at Wexford (11/10) 27 days ago, jumping better as race wore on and well on top at finish. Looks capable of making the step up to graded company over fences.

Useful hurdler who has made a promising start over fences, winning a maiden chase at Fairyhouse. Second of 7 in novice chase (12/1) at Cheltenham 30 days ago, making good ground from the top of the hill despite not being fluent at the last. Sure to progress further in this sphere.

Finished second of 6 in L chase at Clonmel (15/2) 17 days ago, keeping on after going second two out but flattered by proximity to winner. May find this Grade 2 company too hot.

Previously placed in hurdles before switching to chasing, finishing 2nd of 7 at Gowran Park (9/1) 15 days ago where she jumped well and pulled clear behind winner. Faces tougher test in this Grade 2.

FLEUR IN THE PARK has taken impressively to chasing, building on a promising debut second to dominate at Wexford, jumping better throughout and winning with plenty in hand. This Grade 2 looks well within reach. Westport Cove brings solid graded form after his front-running Grade 3 success, while Relieved of Duties caught the eye when finishing strongly at Cheltenham despite jumping errors.
