Beggars Rock
Bolted up when justifying favouritism in first-time blinkers (retained) at Limerick over Christmas and 10lb rise could be lenient; apprentice takes 5lb off and he looks like a big player if taking up this engagement (engaged here Sunday).

Birmingham Alabama
Point winner who got off the mark under rules in a mares' maiden hurdle at Wexford in July; stayed on well for third at Fairyhouse 12 days ago and could come on for that; 1lb higher.

Lehaunstown
Promise when 11th of 24 in Firefox's maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse; not as good twice since but not ruled out up in trip on handicap debut.

Dual point winner but struggled in trio of starts under rules and returns from 157 days off; 2m too short last time but entitled to need this.

Gringo D'ainay
0-12; some good runs in defeat in 2023 but shown very little since returning from 628 days off in two maiden hurdle outings; fair mark back in handicap company if first-time cheekpieces help spark a revival.

Pebble Bleu
Defied a mark of 99 over fences here in October; didn't jump well in a Grade 2 over fences at Limerick but respected from 9lb lower hurdle mark; wears first-time tongue-tie.

Ain't No Sunshine
Struggled on the Flat towards the end of his time in Britain and tailed off on belated return last month; bit to prove.

The Lucky Lobster
0-13; went close at Kilbeggan last summer but not as good twice since and may not want this sort of ground.

Wendell's Lass
17-race maiden but one of her better recent efforts when third of 12 at Fairyhouse last month; raced lazily and first-time cheekpieces may help.

Avandra
Six-race maiden but showed a bit more when fifth of 18 here last month and shaped like a return to further may help.
