Doctor Steinberg
Well-bred sort showed promise in both starts a year apart; third of 14 on heavy at Fairyhouse and then a 2.75l second of 15 on good at Clonmel two months ago; that form has been boosted by the winner and he has obvious claims for leading yard.

Durbani
Arctic Cosmos gelding; dam a 2m4f hurdle winner; beaten 35l in sole point-to-point start at Quakerstown last month; can only be watched on Rules' debut.

Go To Town
No impact in first two starts in bumpers at big prices but produced an improved display to finish a 7.25l fourth of 11 on hurdling debut at Kilbeggan (2m, good) when sent off at 6-1; place claims if building on that.

Hickeys Hill
Quakerstown point-to-point winner fetched 32,000Euros at Goresbridge in November; Hillstar gelding is tongue tied for his racecourse debut; check the market.

Jisco Du Brem
Spanish Moon gelding finished well beaten when the 5-6 favourite on debut at Wexford but had an excuse (mucus found in trachea); off since that run in July and will be interesting to see if his backers return.

Jurado
Lawman gelding showed a glimmer of promise when midfield at 10-1 on debut at Kilbeggan (15.5f, gd-yld) but was still beaten 20l; should improve for that initial experience but will need a lot more to win this.

Mystical Sandmason
33-1 and always behind when pulled up on debut in a Sligo maiden hurdle last month; son of Sandmason drops in trip and switches to a bumper; may need more time.

Ned In The Park
Is 0-5 under Rules'; ran okay in a Thurles bumper on second start last February on testing ground; midfield in maiden hurdles the last twice; hood goes on for return to bumper; has often attracted market support; could run well if the rain comes.

Rapid Redemption
Doyen gelding cost 15,000Euros as a yearling; twelfth foal; brother to Listed bumper and point winner Rapid Escape, closely related to useful bumper and 2m hurdle/chase winner Nicolas Chauvin; dam unraced half-sister to useful 2m-2m4f hurdle/chase winner Chauvinist; well-bred, top yard and market should reveal plenty.

Rosie's Wings
Wings Of Eagles gelding is a first foal; dam 10.6f AW (RPR 72) and 2m hurdle winner, is granddaughter of bumper and 2m3f/2m4f hurdle winning sister to smart staying chaser Heltornic; hooded for debut but not a bad pedigree and worth a market check.

Sent off at 28-1 for debut and beat just one rival home at Clonmel twelve days ago; Valirann gelding may need more time.

Kilmore Dragon
Dragon Pulse gelding sent off at 150-1 for debut at Punchestown late last month and tailed off; tongue tie goes on; seems safe to rule out.
