Barbaha Queen has won over hurdles here and was second over 2m2f on a return visit in September. AODHAN MAY isn't the most consistent, as her form figures imply, though she's capable of winning from this mark if near her best. She had Legacy Of Dreams well beaten when scoring at Wexford in March. Mastermacblack has never won and makes his handicap debut over fences as does Evies Vladimir, who hasn't shown much but hails from an in-form yard. Kings Halo has won over hurdles and his close second in a Tramore handicap over fences on New Year's Day puts him in the frame for this.
