Casheldale Lad
Flat winner for Andrew Kinirons; made a winning start over hurdles for this stable in an ordinary maiden at Gowran over 2m despite making a couple of jumping errors; next run at Navan was a major disappointment; much better when second at Naas, but probably needs to raise his game a little to win this.

Runcok
Failed to win in three bumper starts; won a C&D maiden on heavy ground on first attempt over hurdles; beaten by four shorter-priced stablemates when set a demanding task at Fairyhouse; now takes his place in the spotlight as the stable's only runner, with the form boosted by Irancy.

Zoffman
Two wins and placed 11 times on the Flat (from 22 starts); signed off last season with a second over 1m4f at Cork off a respectable 91; second to an easy winner at Navan on hurdling debut; went one better at Naas early last month; more on his plate now

Naturally Nimble
Flat maiden winner on good; only seventh on soft-ground hurdle debut but much improved when seeing off Willy De Houelle to win Grade 3 at Fairyhouse (yielding) just eight days later; respectable fourth under a penalty in Grade 2 at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting; fell three out when 16-1 in Grade 1 juvenile hurdle at Aintree; first-time cheekpieces.

Deanery Charlie
Seventh foal; half-brother to useful bumper/hurdle winner Eskylane; dam bumper winner, and well-related; tough task taking on winners on introduction, though riding plans are a positive.

Fiver Friday
Developed into a useful Flat performer last year (rated 90), made a bright start to hurdling career, winning 20-runner Naas maiden (2m, good to yielding); failed to build on that at Kelso, implying she may be vulnerable in this company.

Off the course for over a year; unplaced both starts; safe to leave out of calculations.

Khrisma
Won two Grade 3 APQS races over 1m4f at three, soft ground on both occasions; should be better for a Windsor run in January; winner Jubilee Alpha has done her bit for the form.

Kotkito Bello
Ordinary form in point-to-points; some promise on hurdling debut; this seems ambitious.

Second in a point at Ballinaboola in February for the influential Pat Turley; 9-1, never involved on hurdling debut at Naas.

Sine Qua Non
Won Lingstown point-to-point by a huge margin last November from the only other finisher; fair third in a bumper at Navan in January; lack of hurdling experience is a drawback.
