Charter Ridge (IRE) Three times a winner over fences but his best effort came when chasing home Sackville at Cheltenham in November; has disappointed since.
Killusty (IRE) Unbeaten in three starts over fences this term; slightly faster ground should not be a problem.
Coole Spirit (IRE) Good second to Whitenzo (winner since) at Fontwell last time; needs to improve again.
Generous Deal (IRE) Moderate over hurdles; surprising if he is good enough here on chase debut.
Maximize (IRE) Respectable second to Churchstanton on chase debut at Warwick in November; absence since a slight worry.
Electric Avenue (IRE) Little encouragement from four starts over fences.
