Pool Value: £2.60

A race that's usually a good pointer for the Fred Winter at Cheltenham. Murcia can be expected to improve on her poor debut effort for Willie Mullins back on softer ground, while French recruit Kurasso Blue is respected on his debut for Gordon Elliott. Bacchanalian was far from disgraced in a Grade 1 last weekend but HOLY SEE is weighted to reverse the form with that rival and should take some beating on these terms. [Adrian Wall]

No.	Selection	Form		Guide	ToteWin
1	Bacchanalian S F O'keeffe / D Queally	4yrs / 11st 7lb 4216 Spotlight	127	10/3
Bacchanalian Off the mark at the third attempt over hurdles at Fairyhouse last month having run well in two maiden hurdles previously; respectable sixth of eight behind Hello Neighbour in Grade 1 at Dublin Racing Festival last weekend; handles cut and should make his presence felt here.
2	Kurasso Blue Sam Ewing / G Elliott	4yrs / 11st 7lb 1 Spotlight	99	2/1
Kurasso Blue Fifth foal; half-brother to French 2m3f chase winner Rhum Bleu; dam French 1m4f Flat and 2m2f-2m3f hurdle/chase winner, half-sister to French 1m4f/1m5f Flat and 2m2f hurdle winner Speedy Silver, out of sister to 15.5f Group 2 winner Speedmaster; won on hurdles debut at Auteuil in September; first run for Gordon Elliott.
3	Murcia P Townend / W P Mullins	4yrs / 11st 7lb 3-3318 Spotlight	103	3/1	2.00
Murcia Doctor Dino filly got off the mark over hurdles in France at the fourth attempt when running away with 2m2f Auteuil fillies' Listed contest in June on soft; that form is suspect but she possibly didn't handle quicker ground on Irish debut at Leopardstown on St Stephen's Day; respected for top handler.
4	Castleheath E Walsh / Ciaran Murphy	4yrs / 11st 4lb 51 Spotlight	127	15/2	1.30
Castleheath Flat winner who built on encouraging hurdles debut when getting off the mark in this sphere in a maiden at Punchestown (16.5f, soft) last month, with Ephesus back in second; likely front-runner here but will need to progress again to land this.
5	Ephesus D King / D Hogan	4yrs / 11st 0lb 32 Spotlight	120	28/1
Ephesus Useful on the Flat for Aidan O'Brien and won 1m4f Curragh maiden; finished remote third of 20 in Punchestown maiden on hurdles bow and good second there latest, although was no match for Castleheath on the day; more needed.
6	Holy See O R Brown / W Durkan	4yrs / 11st 0lb 42 Spotlight	128	7/2
Holy See AW winner in France; encouraging debut over hurdles at Limerick when he would have been closer but for a mistake at the last; has 12lb pull in the weights with runner-up Bacchanalian for 2.5l beating factoring in Oakley Brown's claim; bumped into Willie Mullins-trained runner when second over C&D latest and the fourth won since; stable won this race last year; big chance.
7	Mickey Cohen N J Ryan / N Meade	4yrs / 11st 0lb 90 Spotlight	108	100/1
Mickey Cohen Showed some ability in Flat maidens; wasn't disgraced on hurdles debut at Punchestown in November but was well behind Holy See there latest.
