Carrigg Island
A 66-1 winner of a Limerick maiden (2m5f, good) but still went off at 20s at Killarney (2m4f, yielding) and trailed in last after doing plenty wrong; now hooded.

Grimaud
Flat winner in France and added a soft-ground maiden hurdle at Gowran in March, after which he finished eighth of 17 in a handicap at Aintree's Grand National meeting; it was a useful rated hurdle in which he was beaten just under 10l last week at Wexford and the good ground was perhaps livelier than he prefers; unraced over this trip but stays 2m4f; major player.

Trasna Na Pairce
Winning pointer and second in a bumper for previous yard; only his third start for current one when making all over 2m3f here three weeks ago (on good) and the runner-up, who was a distance clear of rest, was third to a Mullins hotpot last weekend.

Huntsgrove
Narrow winner of a 2m4f maiden at Sligo (good) but was a tailed-off last of three in a Kilbeggan novice last weekend; as was the case there, these terms aren't easy.
