The lightly-raced GROOVEYKINDOFLOVE may be capable of better still on just her third start over flights. A promising fifth in a stronger race on her racecourse debut at Naas before Christmas, the Henry De Bromhead-trained mare stepped up on that initial effort when runner-up at Down Royal last time. Point-to-point winner Jokers 'N' Clowns refused to race on her rules introduction at Navan last month, before almost redeeming herself when second at Gowran Park a week later. However, after a poor performance when sent off favourite at Cork recently, the Gavin Cromwell-trained five-year-old has something to prove. Milanaway has run well on all four outings over flights, so it is surely just a matter of time before Denis Hogan's mare finds a suitable opportunity against her own sex.

GROOVEYKINDOFLOVE holds the edge on the form of her Down Royal second last time out and with progress on the cards she looks the way to go unless Gordon Elliott's newcomer Gina Moon proves well above average. Kiltealy Park and Jokers 'N' Clowns appeal as the pick of the rest.

GROOVEYKINDOFLOVE is a potential improver stepping back up in trip and she should go well if she jumps better this time

Trainer Philip Fenton, who has been amongst the winners of late, can add another here courtesy of former course winner JERIKO DE BAUNE. The five-year-old was successful over 2m4f here last November, before later proving his stamina for this trip when winning at Fairyhouse. Having run well when third in a better contest at Cork last time, the gelding looks poised to strike under Niall Moore. A two-time winner over hurdles in Perth, Gordon Elliott's Themanintheboots rates a serious threat under jockeys championship leader, Jack Kennedy. The six-year-old had run well on a few occasions in this country prior to his UK raids. Point-to-point winner Sam Magee has faced some stiff tasks in maiden company, so should appreciate this lower grade. He doesn't need to improve a great deal to get involved.

JERIKO DE BAUNE has gradually progressed throughout this season and can register his third success. Themanintheboots may give him most to think about.

A chance is taken on the fitness on THEMANINTHEBOOTS who was in fine form over timber last summer and is fairly treated on return

Although this race is most likely a prep prior to returning to chasing at Punchestown next month, DONKEY YEARS catches the eye off his hurdles mark. The Eric McNamara-trained 10-year-old had somewhat lost his way over fences when last seen but has to be of interest in this discipline off just 116. With the festival just weeks away, the J.P. McManus-owned gelding is unlikely to be found wanting in terms of fitness. Bestaline also has to enter calculations in first-time blinkers. The Gordon Elliott-trained mare is almost certainly better than her bare form suggests, so perhaps the change in headgear will see her in a better light. Tranquil Sea undoubtedly has the ability to feature but Paul Nolan's four-year-old needs to brush up on his jumping in order to do so.

PLAIN OR BATTERED ran well at Down Royal a fortnight ago and could be the way to go. Mick Charlie and Bestaline are dangers.

The four-year-old TRANQUIL SEA could be hard to beat with With improvement in the jumping department.

This trip is probably as short as BOCELLI'S VOICE wants, but there was merit in his fourth place on chasing debut at Thurles last month. He was beaten by a very in-form winner and the third home franked the form in no uncertain terms with a close second in a Grade 3 novice chase at Limerick. Bocelli's Voice has form on better ground in his point-to-point days. Clear The Clouds made the breakthrough over flights in Naas and is swiftly sent over fences. He has to be respected on chasing debut with his confidence boosted now. Paul Nolan's runners always merit a second glance here. His chasing-debutant Chiefs Kingdom has three placed efforts in maiden hurdles to call upon and drying ground holds no fears for him.

Preference is for BOCELLI'S VOICE, who matched his fair hurdling form when fourth on debut in this sphere at Thurles last month and is entitled to build on that. Clear The Clouds and Dgalwaygallivantor rate the principal dangers.

The 2m trip is a concern but it may be worth taking a chance on BOCELLI'S VOICE after a good 2m5f run on his chasing debut at Thurles

BRANDY LOVE was turned over at odds-on at Naas in January, but it may be best to put a line through that as thick fog enveloped the course and that was the only race completed. She did win a Grade 1 mares' novices' hurdle over a similar trip at Fairyhouse a couple of years ago and there is time for her to develop as a chaser having finished runner-up over fences in both starts so far. Atimetodream embarks on a chasing career with one handicap hurdle victory in her locker and this drying ground will aid her cause. Ladybank and Sea Aster could both improve for going chasing. Doyen Ta Win had a tough race off the front at Tramore on Sunday before dropping to third while Soldaro would prefer slower ground.

A final chance is given to BRANDY LOVE, who has found one too strong on both starts in mares maiden chases so far, but Willie Mullins' 8-y-o can open her account returning from a three-and-a-half month break. Ladybank has offered little this season over hurdles, but she could give the selection most to think about sent chasing, with Doyen Ta Win and another chasing debutante Sea Aster rounding off the shortlist.

It's hard to oppose BRANDY LOVE. She's a Grade 1 winner over timber and should have too much class for these rivals

R'EVELYN PLEASURE has enjoyed a fine season and may be able win this race for a second time. He landed a similar veterans' contest at Limerick over Christmas and followed up at Cork. He ran another sound race at the latter venue last time and stepping back up in trip will suit Sean O'Brien's gelding who won this on good ground two years ago. Big Debates was a close third in last year's renewal and has only run once over fences since then. He has run creditably off his lower hurdles mark a couple of times this season. Padraig Roche has got Shadow Rider back to form over hurdles and he was runner-up in a Listed handicap at Cork last month. This will be his first start over the larger obstacles for well over a year and he is now rated 3lb lower as a chaser but drying ground is a concern for this fragile sort.

SHADOW RIDER hasn't really looked a natural over fences but he arrives in top form over timber and the assessor has certainly given him a major chance. R'evelyn Pleasure is a solid rival back up trip.

This can go the way of SHADOW RIDER (nap) who has been running well over hurdles and he's rated 3lb lower in this sphere

A highly competitive finale and a tentative selection is ROYAL HOLLOW who is fitted with a hood for the first time. Andy Slattery's charge was never out of the first three in five bumper starts last year and found only one too good on four occasions. She ran well on good ground first time out so her absence since October is not greatly concerning. Sansrisk had a couple of good runs over hurdles earlier in the season and has been placed in two bumpers. She will enjoy the drying ground. Holly Brook was well behind Sansrisk when a beaten favourite at Naas but had previously run creditably in a Grade 2 contest at Leopardstown. Cottesloe Diamond was third in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle on debut and is another to consider along with Arctic Piper whose useful sister won a bumper on debut.

The suggestion is Henry de Bromhead point recruit JOUEUSE ROYALE, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Cottesloe Sunshine showed enough when third in a maiden hurdle on debut to think she could make her presence felt in a race like this, while Farfromnowhere is another interesting recruit from the pointing field.

SANSRISK was a bit below form last month but she shaped with plenty of promise on better ground earlier this season and may bounce back
