GRIMAUD won twice on the Flat in France and has been placed on all three hurdle outings since joining current connections. He wasn't helped by a mistake at the last when beating all bar the odds-on Fishery Lane over 2m4f at Fairyhouse and should be suited by this drop back in trip. Captain Ryan Matt probably came up against a useful sort when no match for Karbau at Punchestown, while Fierce Handay was noted staying on in a Navan maiden that has been working out quite well and any market move would be significant. Bop Wont Stop showed promise when third to Pure Steel at Cork, but has disappointed twice since.

CAPTAIN RYAN MATT was no match for a smart prospect at Punchestown on his most recent outing, but it still represented a big step forward from his hurdling debut and a reproduction of that form may well suffice. Grimaud is proving consistent over hurdles and is an obvious threat, with Imarajan and newcomer Sixtripleeight others worthy of consideration.

Despite being turned over three times over hurdles to date, the 123-rated GRIMAUD should prove too strong for his rivals

WHIMSY won three times on the Flat, including over 1m6f at Carlisle last summer, and has made the frame on her latest four starts over hurdles. She likes to be up with the pace and while reluctant to line up at Punchestown last time, only went down by half a length to Adela Icon, with the pair pulling well clear of the remainder. Innatendue has been placed on a number of occasions and now has her first run for Henry de Bromhead following an eight-month break. Limerick bumper winner Neon Diamond attracted the attention of the stewards at Clonmel last month, while Long Gone and Hurricane Bailey are others to consider.

WHIMSY rather agonisingly found only a less exposed sort from the Mullins' yard too strong in a maiden at Punchestown 12 days ago. Miles clear of the remainder that day, she holds obvious claims again and shades the vote to belatedly open her account in this sphere. Innatendue and Long Gone may emerge as the chief dangers.

A habit of finding one too good is a major concern for potential supporters of WHIMSY, but this looks like a good opportunity

BAL KAUTO gets the vote, despite being off the track for nearly two years since completing a hat-trick in the space of just over three weeks. The Declan Queally-trained gelding landed a 2m3f Limerick handicap hurdle before two easy wins over fences, and his timber mark remains at a lowly level. Market support would greatly increase confidence, while others to consider include Love Me and Love Like This. The former won a 23-runner Navan handicap over this trip and has been given a break since disappointing at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting. Aboy Joey and Glorytogod Tom are others for the shortlist.

Lots with chances but LOVE ME rates just the pick of the weights so edges the vote from in-form pair Aboy Joey and Glorytogod Tom. Love Like This and Paul's Dream also need factoring into this open handicap.

The big question is whether BAL KAUTO will be ready for this after a long absence. His stable's form this season is a positive

KINGKONG CIERGUES merits plenty of respect after being pipped by a head in Fairyhouse. He races off 2lb lower with Tiernan Power Roche's claim factored in. Knockbrack Rambler is up in class after obliging at Limerick over Christmas. Given that the third home has come out and won twice, he should be a factor in this company. Joya Del Mar showed good improvement to chase home the winner at Fairyhouse and she could build upon that. Ray Hackett had a winner at Thurles during the week and his Roc My Haarth has stronger claims than most, while Doyen Flyer and Cosmo Renfro aren't out of it.

ROC MY HAARTH is gradually getting the hang of things and he took a step forward when a fine third on his recent handicap debut at Limerick. The 6-y-o is taken to emerge on top here, with Smackwater Jack and Drop The Anchor nominated as the main dangers in that order of preference.

Perhaps KNOCKBRACK RAMBLER can back up his December win at Limerick as the form has been well-advertised by the third

The form of ONE LAST TANGO's close fourth in a similar grade at Leopardstown over Christmas is working out very well. He was then pipped by a neck at Down Royal in January and gets in off a lovely light weight in this race. Lazer Wolf won at Clonmel in December and ought to be involved. Champagne Mahler is another lurking at the lower end of the weights and there was promise in his runner-up effort on his handicap chase debut at Fairyhouse. Grange Walk's third place at 50/1 in a valuable handicap chase at the Dublin Racing Festival in Leopardstown was a notable effort.

CHAMPAGNE MAHLER bounced back to best on his first go in a handicap chase when second at Fairyhouse 6 weeks ago and looks up to defying this sort of mark. In-form pair One Last Tango and Lazer Wolf are others to consider.

It looks as if ONE LAST TANGO is getting the hang of things over fences and he can add to the three wins he gained over hurdles

EARLY DOORS took the notable scalp of a prolific winner when successful in an Oldtown point-to-point and looks the one to beat. He was runner-up on the 'track' at Listowel last June and was well clear of the remainder. Big Interest is up-and-coming in this discipline and there was plenty to like about how he posted an easy success at Down Royal over Christmas. He found life tougher when fourth in Naas, but another big run looks on the cards. My Best Valentine has been enjoying herself in point-to-points to earn a shot at this company, while Dorking Cock shouldn't be ruled out.

Granted decent ground BIG INTEREST could take some stopping here. He was a clear-cut winner on Rules debut in a Down Royal bumper on Boxing Day and the slow surface appeared to count against him at Naas next time. Recent point winner Lonesome Boatman will be a threat if he puts his best foot forward, while Hollow Games is third choice. Early Doors and multiple point winner My Best Valentine are also shortlisted.

The 2020 Galway Plate EARLY DOORS should be in peak form for this after beating Winged Leader at Oldtown last month

An interesting bumper and KSAR FATAL looks dangerous on his racecourse debut for Willie Mullins. Donnchadh Doyle trained him to win a point-to-point at Curraghmore in October and the runner-up has since proved good enough to land a maiden hurdle at Punchestown. King's Bucks is another point-to-point winner who is starting out on his racecourse career with Henry de Bromhead. He is an obvious threat. Chasing Blues made plenty of money at the Derby Sale a couple of years ago. He is related to several multiple winners and is an intriguing runner for Gavin Cromwell. Powerful Paddy kept on for third in a Fairyhouse bumper and that experience will stand to him.

KSAR FATAL and King's Bucks have both joined top stables after point wins and might be the pair to focus on, with preference for the former before any market clues are known. Chasing Blues, one of 2 newcomers from the Gavin Cromwell stable, completes the shortlist.

A race typically won by a classy type who goes onto better things, Willie Mullins can continue his bumper dominance with KSAR FATAL
