El Cairos
Having shown useful form in bumpers, EL CAIROS had the race at his mercy when falling after the last at Leopardstown on hurdling debut, so he looks to hold strong claims of gaining compensation this time around. The main danger could be Roc Dino, who bumped into a smart prospect on his first run for Willie Mullins, ahead of How's The Head.

Useful bumper winner for Gary & Josh Moore and was in the process of making an impressive start over hurdles in a Leopardstown maiden (16f, good, 8/15) 34 days ago, in control when stumbling and falling after the last.

Placed twice from 3 starts over hurdles in France for Gabriel Leenders and, after 11 months off, beat the rest comfortably when second of 16 in maiden at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy, 6/4) 2 weeks ago, albeit no match for odds-on stablemate.

Fairly useful handicapper on the Flat (stays 2m) but was reported to have bled when pulled up in maiden at Tramore (16.8f, soft, 14/1) on hurdling debut 28 days ago.

Never dangerous in maiden hurdle at Cork first time up, but under a change of tactics he left that effort behind when fourth of 17 in similar event there (16.9f, good to soft, 150/1) 26 days ago.

Promising first effort when fourth of 14 in maiden hurdle at Limerick (16f) in November.
