MONEY DANCER handled testing ground well when making a winning debut at the Curragh last spring. Her form tailed off in three subsequent Flat outings, but the Belardo filly made a very encouraging start over hurdles at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting when staying on well into third behind Wendrock with Last Kingdom 16 lengths back in fourth. Ephesus won a 1m4f Curragh maiden for Aidan O'Brien and finished a moderate third behind the impressive Sainte Lucie when switched to hurdles here last month with Chortal over 10 lengths behind. Castleheath won on the Flat at Sligo and made a bright start over hurdles at Cork.

Flat-winner MONEY DANCER displayed stamina for the hurdling game when third at Leopardstown 17 days ago and expected to build on that, she looks the answer. The JP McManus-owned pair Last Kingdom and Powerful could be the main dangers.

A chance is taken on CASTLEHEATH who ran a big race at huge odds at Cork and with improvement likely, he may be worth chancing
Class & Speed Card

AWAY TO MILAN ran well after a lengthy absence when third to Binge Worthy over 2m3f here in November and should be suited by this drop back in distance after again weakening in the closing stages over 2m3f here on New Year's Eve. Ragmans Corner opened his account at Galway in October and comes here off another creditable run when second to Arch Enemy at Fairyhouse, while Tuckmill is another for the shortlist. The Court Cave gelding has won three times over hurdles including at Wexford last summer and has been in good form since over fences.

RAGMANS CORNER rates the pick of these weights on the back of his very good Fairyhouse second so gets tthe vote. Tuckmill heads the list of dangers back in this sphere with Royal Time, Jarvis Brook and Away To Milan all in the mix too.

TUCKMILL (nap) ran a cracker over fences at Leopardstown when last seen and he's rated a stone lower in this sphere

MAGIC MCCOLGAN was a useful sort in bumpers last season winning at Leopardstown and finishing second to Familiar Dreams again on testing ground in a Fairyhouse Listed event. She beat all bar Relieved Of Duties when switched to hurdles on her reappearance at Cork last month and gets the vote over Speculatrix, who held a similar level of form in bumpers. The course winner was clear when falling at the last on her hurdles debut at Killarney and takes a drop in class after disappointing here last time. The well-bred Glens Lullaby switches to hurdles after a decisive bumper win at Wexford and she also commands respect.

Henry de Bromhead's FULL OF LIFE shaped well when a debut hurdling second in a big field at Cork last month and this winning pointer can go one better now with improvement very much on the cards. Willie Mullins' Magic McColgan, also runner-up on her debut at Cork, is feared most, with form pick Speculatrix and newcomer Glens Lullaby in the picture too.

The well-bred MAGIC MCCOLGAN ran with promise on her return to action and she ought to improve stepping up in trip

PEBBLE BLEU might be a bit of value in this novice handicap hurdle. Tried in a first-time tongue-tie, she won off 4lb higher over fences here in October and is very interesting dropping in class and reverting to timber. Birmingham Alabama won a Wexford maiden last summer and shaped well on her return at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day. Wendell's Lass gave some encouragement when third to Arch Enemy at Fairyhouse last month and is now fitted with cheekpieces, while Avandra and The Lucky Lobster are others to note.

Unexposed mare BIRMINGHAM ALABAMA improved when third back from a break on her handicap debut at Fairyhouse and, armed with scope for further improvement, she looks the way to go. Lehaunstown can be expected to leave his low-key maiden form well behind now pitched into a handicap and is feared most ahead of Wendell's Lass. However, there is a significant caveat: if recent runaway Limerick winner Beggars Rock sidesteps his engagement here on Sunday and takes his chance, he will be a huge player.

BIRMINGHAM ALABAMA should be invovled if she comes on for her return when staying on nicely for 3rd and she's only up 1lb

Former point-to-point and bumper winner WILL THE WISE could be the answer. He has been placed in a couple of maiden hurdles and was highly tried in a Grade 2 novice hurdle at Navan. Custom Taylor won his bumper in Kilbeggan before placed runs in maiden hurdles at Galway and Limerick. Notably, the horse that beat him into second at Limerick over Christmas has an entry in a Grade 1 at the Dublin Racing Festival. Butchers Bill wasn't cheap at a Derby Sale and there is likely to be more to come from him, while Jump Allen is one to note up in trip. Point-to-point graduate Banter At The Bar should be given a market check.

Point winner BANTER AT THE BAR may well turn out to be an above-average recruit and he is taken to make a winning start under Rules. Custom Taylor has done nothing wrong in his two starts over hurdles and he rates the main danger ahead of Will The Wise. The Willie Mullins-trained Jump Allen and Prophet's Corner are others with potential.

A fairly useful standard is set by CUSTOM TAYLOR who has placed in 2 maiden hurdles and looks like an improver up in trip

COSMO RENFRO looks dangerous reverting back to hurdling. Chasing didn't go to plan as he fell at Gowran Park and was pulled up at this track. However, he wasn't out of the first three on his previous seven hurdle races. During that spell, he won twice at Limerick and relishes attritional ground. Slotty Dotty brings a consistent level of form to the contest and has the same rating of 105 as Cosmo Renfro. She has banked third places in Leopardstown and Tramore and was last seen finishing fourth at Limerick in December. Comeonarchie kept on for second over further at this venue last month, but the forecast ground conditions may not be ideal for him.

If the first-time cheekpieces have the desired effect ROBYNDEGLORY would have a serious chance, off the same mark as when a close third in a big-field handicap at Tipperary in November. She has failed to fire both starts since but perhaps the headgear will have make a difference. Comeonarchie put in a solid shift here last time and he is an obvious danger, while Tilloughna is also on the shortlist.

Improved under a more positive ride here last month when second over 3m, COMEONARCHIE can go one better here dropped in trip

INTROVERSIO is a half-sister to a Listed bumper winner and is of obvious interest on her debut for Willie Mullins who won this race last year with another newcomer. Gordon Elliott's Forceonmyown came home second in a Limerick bumper behind a highly-regarded winner. She was well clear of the remainder, so this former winner between the flags sets a decent standard. Galileo Springs encounters much slower ground, but has posted runner-up spots in Naas and Fairyhouse. It is worth noting that it was a very smart sort that beat her in Fairyhouse. Arctic Flame can build upon a Thurles fifth, while Katie's Casper showed some promise in third in a Downpatrick bumper last May.

INTROVERSIO is in excellent hands and related to a winner in this sphere, so she may well be up to scoring at the first attempt for all that Galileo Springs sets a reasonable standard and looks a danger. A case can be made for Forceonmyown, too.

Galieo Springs, Katie's Casper and Forceonmyown all have chances but the debutante INTROVERSIO could usurp them all
