SAINT ROI was a bit disappointing on his debut for these connections at Clonmel last month but he can be given another chance today given his placed effort in a Listed hurdle in France in 2018. Arcadian Sunrise won a bumper at Carlisle earlier in the season and he merits respect today, while Epson Du Houx and Wavelength are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Saint Roi 2nd Arcadian Sunrise 3rd Epson Du Houx

MUSICAL AVA is a 26-race maiden under Rules but she was only beaten a head over C&D last time out and she will not get many better opportunities than this to get off the mark. Knockraha Boss is another maiden who could go well in a race of this nature, while the shortlist is completed by Capture The Action and Western Rambler.
Prediction : 1st Musical Ava 2nd Knockraha Boss 3rd Capture The Action

FORTUNE STREET was not disgraced when finishing third on his hurdling debut at Fairyhouse in November and this former bumper winner has to be given the utmost respect this afternoon. Multifactorial disappointed last time out but he is a player based upon his previous form. Tune The Chello filled fourth place on her Rules debut last month over 2m and the daughter of Ask should appreciate this step up in trip.
Prediction : 1st Fortune Street 2nd Multifactorial 3rd Tune The Chello

MOHART put in a brave display when second at Tramore in October, just failing to give a progressive winner 13lb, and could return to winning ways under Philip Enright. The eight-year-old shouldn't be deterred by this switch back to hurdles off a fair mark of 98 and appeals marginally more than C&D scorer Isabel's Gold, who was second at Limerick in a competitive heat just four days ago. Macho Mover and Duhallow Paddy bring solid recent form to the table and complete the list of likely contenders.
Prediction : 1st Mohart 2nd Isabels Gold 3rd Duhallow Paddy

Gold Cup hero AL BOUM PHOTO returns to action for the first time since being narrowly defeated by Kemboy at Punchestown in May and can make a winning comeback for Willie Mullins and Paul Townend. The eight-year-old is seemingly getting better with age and can take this en route to the March showpiece once more. Mullins dominates this contest with three of the four participants and Voix Du Reve is fancied to claim the silver medal ahead of Acapella Bourgeois, who has been disappointing the last twice. Shattered Love isn't the easiest to predict these days and arrives with a bit to find.
Prediction : 1st Al Boum Photo 2nd Voix Du Reve 3rd Shattered Love

BENEFIT RUN returned to winning ways in a beginners' chase over 2m2f at Thurles last time and is expected to remain competitive now dropping back to this shorter trip. First Class Return makes some appeal on his course second over 2m6f in October and is considered the main danger ahead of Tintown Robin, who hinted his turn was approaching when third over a similar trip at Clonmel last month.
Prediction : 1st Benefit Run 2nd First Class Return 3rd Tintown Robin

Highest Benefit has been raised 7lb for scoring over C&D last month and should give it his best shot, but, for win purposes, LACKEN BRIDGE is more appealing. Also a track-and-trip scorer, the selection has dropped to within 1lb of his last winning mark and is entitled to come on for his last run at Naas, which was his first start since May. Kilderry Prince, who landed this contest off 5lb lower 12 months ago, is another worth noting.
Prediction : 1st Lacken Bridge 2nd Highest Benefit 3rd Kilderry Prince
