  2. Return To Base (IRE):
    Return To Base is a fairly useful hurdler who won a handicap hurdle at Downpatrick in good style recently. However, she needs to improve her jumping in this second stint over fences to be competitive.
  3. Butterflyvespiere (FR):
    Butterflyvespiere has shown some promise in chase starts earlier this spring, but her recent form over hurdles at Punchestown was disappointing. It may be best to watch her in this race.
  4. Hope Des Blins (FR):
    Hope Des Blins is a fairly useful chaser who finished fourth in a novice chase at Limerick. With a slight drop in trip, she should be in the mix for a place in this race.
  5. Caddy Shack (IRE):
    Caddy Shack has struggled to find success in recent runs and finished fourth in a minor event chase at Naas. With a long losing streak and tough competition in this race, it is wise to consider other contenders.

Special Mention:
Heia (FR), with the highest total rating and a promising hurdle form, is deemed to have an exceptional chance based on the comments provided. Her chase debut, coupled with the good form of the yard, makes her the top contender in this race.

Overall, Heia (FR), Return To Base (IRE), Butterflyvespiere (FR), Hope Des Blins (FR), and Caddy Shack (IRE) are the top contenders based on the total ratings.
