CRESCENT MOON isn't certain to confirm recent C&D placings with Sticwiththeprocess, given that the latter is 14 lb better off having been beaten 15½ lengths into third by the selection in the handicap in question and, with just four runs under his belt, he is open to improvement. Conversely, Crescent Moon crossed the line hard-held that day and she may well be capable of defying a significant rise in the weights. Fellow C&D winner Must Go Now and Harbour Highway are others to consider.

    Verdict
    Lightly-raced maiden. 5/1, good 15½ lengths third of 10 to Crescent Moon in handicap hurdle at this C&D (good) 14 days ago. Enjoys a sizeable pull at the weights with that rival and, with scope for improvement, he's a must for the shortlist.

    Verdict
    Career best when winning 10-runner handicap hurdle at this C&D (good, 7/4) 14 days ago, hard held. Predictably hit hard by the assessor (up 14 lb) but she's a relatively low-mileage 5-y-o, which offers hope that the best is still yet to come.

    Verdict
    5/1, creditable third of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (12f, soft) 22 days ago, not ideally placed. Wide-margin winner of 2m Gowran mares' maiden on latest start in this sphere last month and while this mark leaves little margin for error, she should nevertheless have a part to play.

    C&D winner on New Year's Day. 13/2, good third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Naas (18.7f, heavy) 84 days ago, running on. Return to this trip will be very much in his favour and a bold show looks assured.

    Verdict
    4/1, fifth of 7 in novice hurdle at Navan (20f, soft) 29 days ago, not knocked about. Likely improver now handicapping for a shrewd, much-respected yard and he's one to consider, for all that Mark Walsh has opted to ride Sticwiththeprocess.

    Course winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year, the latest a 2m novice at this course in February. Fell in handicap hurdle (7/1) at Navan (20f, heavy) 50 days ago (too early to suggest how he may have fared) and merits respect back here.

    3 wins from 8 runs this year, the latest at Leopardstown in March. Respectable fourth of 11 in novice hurdle at Wexford (24.5f, soft, 7/2) 16 days ago. Perhaps a shade too high in the weights for now.

    Verdict
    Successful at Chepstow in October. Creditable second of 5 in novice hurdle (5/6) at Ffos Las (20f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Makes handicap debut for in-form British yard and while he needs to raise his game, that's entirely possible given that he has few miles on the clock.

    Remains a maiden after 19 NH runs. 12/1, tenth of 14 in novice hurdle at Limerick (24f, good) 19 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and, unless the new headgear sparks improvement, he will probably come up short once again.
