Verdict

This could go to one of the chasing debutants, with PRINCESS AVEEN preferred after showing sound form in points and winning over hurdles at Fairyhouse in October. Clody Diamond is open to improvement on her second start in this discipline so is on the shortlist along with Market Ready.

10	Runner-up on first 2 starts in points before going one better in April. Well held in a bumper, but making hurdling/stable debut she left that effort behind when winning mares maiden at Fairyhouse last month.

8	Point winner who has shown fair form over hurdles. With hood fitted after 5 months off, mid-field in maiden at Wexford on chasing debut in June, before running below expectations over hurdles in August.

5	Half-brother to smart hurdler/chaser The Worlds End who has returned to form over hurdles the last twice, third of 13 in novice handicap at Clonmel 16 days ago. Arrives in good heart and is one to note on chasing bow given his pedigree. 3rd Pick 5 Market Ready (Ire) Jockey: S. F. O'keeffe Trainer: Sean Aherne, Ireland J: S. F.
