TOUCH THE MOON, rated 90 on the Flat in Britain, had Royal Approval well behind when he was touched off by a useful type on hurdling debut at Navan. He travelled strongly on that occasion and can go one better for a yard that has made a bright start to the season. Talk The Talk was second in a valuable bumper at Newbury in March and has since moved to Joseph O'Brien. Splendid Fellow showed ability in a point-to-point and has since joined a powerful yard, while Starting Fifteen, who sports a first-time hood for his debut over flights, has some strong bumper form in the book. The 112-rated Louiescall probably has place claims at best.

With improvement forthcoming from his narrow hurdles debut defeat at Navan, TOUCH THE MOON (nap) can go one better today

BRIDGE VIEW STAR is a half-brother to progressive staying handicapper Rising Dust and is likely to appreciate stepping up to this trip. He was never in contention in a similar contest at Galway but stayed on close home, before running with credit in a bumper at Listowel, a race which is working out well. He looks a major player in what is a weak contest. We Be Grand has run well in two bumpers and stuck to his task when not beaten far at Listowel recently. He should also be suited by this longer distance but does lack the experience of some of his rivals. A couple of winners have come out of the Ballinrobe maiden in which Run For The Border finished seventh and she has place claims.

WE BE GRAND showed more ability than any of his rivals when fifth in a Listowel bumper. A repeat of that should win this.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

FEET OF A DANCER was third to the classy Jetara in last year's renewal and doesn't face a rival of that calibre this time around. Paul Nolan's mare ran with credit in four subsequent starts last season, including when fourth in the Pertemps Final at Cheltenham, and she is weighted to go close on these terms. Nolan is also represented by Farfromnowhere and it is noteworthy that the selection's usual rider, Sean O'Keeffe, has elected to partner this dual course winner. World Of Fortunes returned to form at Ballinrobe latest and the dual Listed scorer was impressive when winning at this meeting 12 months ago. Thisistheway was progressive last season and reverts to hurdles following a recent spin on the Flat.

Though FARFROMNOWHERE is conceding 4lb to her higher-rated stablemate Feet Of A Dancer, she has racefitness on her side.

BALLYKINLAR rattled off a hat-trick over the summer and acquitted himself well in novice company when third at Listowel recently, a race which has been well advertised since. The selection's regular rider can't claim his allowance this time around but he still meets Carrigg Island, who was a length-and-a-half behind him at Listowel, on 1lb better terms. The latter is gradually learning to settle and ought to remain competitive, while stablemate Shadow Paddy was one of six winners for Eoin McCarthy at the Listowel Harvest Festival and might have more to offer.

BALLYKINLAR was 1.5l in front of Carrigg Island when third at Listowel last time and can confirm that form.

Race conditions ought to suit QUINT MAJOR, who is capable of landing a handicap of this standard. Mark Molloy's seven-year-old has fair form in the book under both codes, and he ran with credit in a maiden hurdle here last Christmas. His third at Clonmel in April was promising and he may have needed the run when disappointing at Navan last month. Weston probably wants softer ground but is well treated in this sphere relative to his Flat mark. His third to a well-handicapped winner on his latest hurdles start at Fairyhouse was a good effort. Farrokh is consistent but needs to improve for the addition of first-time blinkers, while Arthur's Victory ran well despite being hampered by a faller at Punchestown on Tuesday.

MATT CONNOR finished well after a troubled passage on his handicap debut off this mark at Gowran so he gets a tentative vote

Mark Molloy has a chance with Quint Major in the previous contest and he could be worth following again, as RHYTHMIC TUNE has been shaping like a step up to this trip will suit. He kept on nicely over 2m on handicap debut and stuck to his task well when third over an extended 2m2f at Cork last time. This trip might unlock a bit more improvement from the lightly-raced six-year-old. Gaelic Des Chastys won over fences at Listowel recently and now reverts to the smaller obstacles from 16lb lower than his new chase mark. Hurricane Honey won easily when last seen over timber in August and arrives here in good form.

Narrow preference is for RHYTHMIC TUNE who shaped as though ready for this step up in trip when third at Cork last Sunday

AMINA could be the answer. John McConnell's charge has been placed in both of her bumpers and her latest effort, which came here in April, has been well franked. John Gleeson is a notable booking. Blue Bresil filly Samba Train didn't fire at Listowel last month, but that was her first run following a break and she has some solid form in the book. Ill Raise A Glass showed improvement to get off the mark at Cork in March and there may be more to come from her. Tumbling In stayed on for fourth on debut at Listowel and is no back number, along with Tramore winner Alaskan View.

A chance is taken on TUMBLING IN improving enough from her Listowel debut to score for a local yard.
