Comment: Dual hurdle winner has been below form in that sphere on recent starts; needs to get back to his best on belated chasing debut.

Jet Setting Jim

Jockey: B Hayes Trainer: John Queally Age/Wt: 8/11-12 F: F35P-

Comment: Bumper and maiden hurdle winner has run respectably in three Flat starts lately against smart rivals; had every chance on chasing debut in this race last year when falling at the last; decent efforts on two of three chase runs since; a shout.

Runcok

Jockey: P Townend Trainer: W P Mullins Age/Wt: 5/11-12 F: 515-6F

Comment: Maiden hurdle winner in February ran well in a Fairyhouse Grade 2 next time before a poor run at Punchestown; was well clear and would surely have won at Roscommon on chasing debut when falling three out; will be difficult to beat with a clear round today.

Trasna Na Pairce

Jockey: D J O'Keeffe Trainer: Henry de Bromhead Age/Wt: 6/11-12 F: 203-11

Comment: Point winner has shown improved form over hurdles lately, winning a Clonmel maiden over 2m3f and a novice at the same track over 2m6f; runner-up in a bumper so should have the speed to cope with this drop in trip; chance if jumping well on chasing debut.

Naturally Nimble

Jockey: J J Slevin Trainer: Joseph Patrick O'Brien Age/Wt: 4/11-0 F: 714F-3

Comment: Flat maiden winner was a smart juvenile hurdler last season, winning a Grade 3, but was below form in cheekpieces at Punchestown; beaten a long way in a Flat handicap at the Curragh since; however, has a chance if his jumping holds up on chasing bow.

Elusive Prince

Comment: Point-to-point winner is 0-11 under Rules; ran well in defeat at times over hurdles but didn't improve for the switch to chasing over this C&D 54 days ago; cheekpieces and tongue tie now tried.

Comment: Off the mark at the fourth attempt over fences when making all at Limerick (2m2f, good) in May in first-time cheekpieces (retained); up 7lb but should go well again.

Comment: Point-to-point (3m) and Killarney maiden hurdle (20.5f) winner; may have needed the run on handicap chase debut when beaten 19.5l at Tramore (2m6f, gd-yld) a month ago but suspicion this trip may be on the sharp side.

Comment: Chase debutante is 2-25 over timber, those wins coming at around 2m on soft and yielding ground; pedigree suggests she'll take to fences but lacks a recent run; the market should reveal expectations.

Jockey: A Harvey Trainer: John C McConnell Age/Wt: 7/11-7 F: 3158-4

Comment: Won three of 16 starts over hurdles and rated 115 in that sphere; awarded a chase rating of 118 after an 11.5l fourth of 12 at Kilbeggan (20.5f, good); trip and ground fine and she should go well.

Jockey: D J Gilligan Trainer: Paul John Gilligan Age/Wt: 5/11-7 F: 68-42

Comment: Outran odds when finishing a 1.75l second behind a 130-rated rival in a three-runner race at Limerick (2m4f, good) in May; that may have flattered her but she has place claims at least if backing it up.

Comment: Is 1-5 over hurdles and rated 116 over fences after two chase starts; ran well on chase debut at Sligo in October but jumping lacked fluency when last of 11 at Fairyhouse in January; off since but worth a market check for leading yard.

Comment: Dual-purpose chasing debutante is 5-21 over timber and rated 130; modest run on the Flat at Ballinrobe last week; not an obvious candidate for chasing on breeding but she will be well-schooled and can't be discounted.

Dark Note

Jockey: C M Quirke Trainer: Andrew Slattery Age/Wt: 6/11-5 F: 03457-

Comment: Dual-purpose hurdles and Flat winner; running consistently well without winning on the Flat in recent weeks; rated 118 over timber and 2m trip may have been too sharp on last start over fences at Thurles; not discounted

Park The Giant

Jockey: B Hayes Trainer: Philip Fenton Age/Wt: 7/11-5 F: 1435-

Comment: Hurdles winner (rated 118); caught the eye when third of 10 in a Punchestown novice chase in November; not as good on latest at Navan but may not have appreciated soft ground; lacks a run but has gone well fresh before; very interesting.

Saint Peregrine

Jockey: D King Trainer: John Patrick Ryan Age/Wt: 6/11-5 F: 0-7202

Comment: Maiden has run well in defeat in two of his four starts over hurdles; rated just 96, however, and he'll need to improve plenty for the switch to fences to trouble the best of these.

St Cuthbert's Cave

Jockey: J W Kennedy Trainer: Gordon Elliott Age/Wt: 7/11-5 F: F1-32

Comment: Is 1-11 over hurdles and rated 118 in that sphere; solid 3l second on chase debut at Kilbeggan early last month (20.5f, good); leading chance if building on that promising effort.
