9th	1	—	D Art D Art (G) Useful on his day, finished eighth in Pertemps Final at Cheltenham in March. Below form both starts since, however latest at Fairyhouse came on the back of a 9-month absence. Could step forward.	80/P90-1	Daniel King T Cooper	7	75.3kg	13 12/1
7th	2	—	Harry Des Ongrais (G) P Very useful chaser shaped better than the result in Grade 3 handicap at Leopardstown last time and looks interesting off significantly lower hurdles mark.	2P/3P07-	Darragh O'Keeffe H De Bromhead	9	75.3kg	8 7/1
2nd	3	—	Minella Sixo (G) V Yet to fire this season, well beaten sixth in listed handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (24.1f, heavy, 33/1) 20 days ago. Both career wins have come with returning Jack Kennedy in the plate, though.	0-97620	Jack Kennedy G Elliott	7	74.8kg	5 4/1
4th	4	—	Waittillitellyou (G) T Veteran hasn't backed up a career-best reappearance win at Navan in February. Questions to answer.	4/10-P46	Eoin Walsh E Cawley	12	71.7kg	51 50/1
1st	5	—	Melbourne Shamrock (G) FAV P Promising sort who showed much improved form when close second in Fairyhouse novice and wasn't given a hard time when fourth at Navan last month. In very capable hands and can progress again now hand…	P-42410	Donagh Meyler E Mullins	7	71.2kg	3.50 5/2
3rd	6	—	Ontheropes (G) Best effort for a while when runner-up at Gowran last month but did nothing in a hurry when well held third of 5 behind Well Dell on Wednesday. Losing run stretches back to 2021.	02330P	Sean Cleary-Farrell T Mullins	12	69.9kg	7 6/1
8th	7	—	Hartur D'arc (G) P Pulled up over hurdles at Leopardstown earlier this month. Cheekpieces on first-time but possibly being campaigned with bigger targets over fences in mind.	20-P0P8	Michael Kenneally J C McConnell	9	68.9kg	10 9/1
5th	8	—	Well Del (G) Showed a good attitude to make a winning stable debut in 5-runner handicap hurdle at Punchestown (24.8f, heavy, 3/1) 4 days ago. In deeper waters now and isn't an obvious type to follow up under a pe…	230156	Calum Hogan D K Walsh	8	68kg	7 6/1
6th	9	—	Jeriko De Baune (G) No show in either start since winning at Clonmel in November. Something to prove at present.	1P/063P-	Niall Moore P Fenton	7	67.1kg	13 12/1
