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

SPILLANE'S TOWER had Arctic Bresil and Firm Footings behind him when runner-up in a good novice hurdle at the Festival here and after settling for fourth on his chasing bow at Galway, he occupied the same position in the hot beginners chase won by Facile Vega at Navan. That experience gives him an edge over fencing newcomers Arctic Bresil and Firm Footings, who could still close the gap at least. Captain Conby has claimed minor money in a couple of Graded races, though, and might be the bigger threat.

HGRANCA DE THAIX made a positive start over fences when third at Fairyhouse in October following a nine-month absence and, likely to improve with that run under his belt, he shades preference ahead of Pinkerton. The latter was placed in two quality maiden chases at the aforementioned course last month and looks a big threat, while Spillane's Tower has also show promise in this sphere and should have a part to play, too.

An interesting novice chase in which Monalee's half-brother FIRM FOOTINGS is taken to make a winning chase debut

Gordon Elliott can do little wrong at present and looks to have a solid contender in the shape of COOL SURVIVOR, whose respectable fourth-placed finish behind the high-class Gaelic Warrior over 2m3f here last month sets the standard over fences. Willie Mullins has a good line on the worth of the form with Embassy Gardens, whose current hurdles rating of 140 entitles him to the utmost respect on his chasing debut. Lets Go Champ is in the early stages of his development in this discipline and also commands respect.

Useful-hurdler COOL SURVIVOR is worth another chance to confirm the promise of his chase debut returning to a trip that will prove much more suitable. Embassy Gardens was of similar ability over timber so is an obvious threat going chasing on his return.

With the advantage of two runs over fences and race fitness COOL SURVIVOR is given slight preference over Embassy Gardens.

An easy point-to-point winner in November last year, Killaney King is very interesting on his hurdling debut, while Rainbow Trail also represents powerful connections and the expensive purchase impressed when landing a Clonmel bumper last month after a troubled passage. However, slight preference is for BLIZZARD OF OZ, who sets the form standard with his second in a Grade 2 bumper at Aintree in the spring and the Willie Mullins-trained five-year-old could have a very bright future over obstacles.

BLIZZARD OF OZ was the best of these in bumpers and is the choice of Paul Townend on hurdles debut. He gets the nod. Rainbow Trail and Beau Walking are feared most in what should prove an informative contest.

BLIZZARD OF OZ was smart in bumpers last season and should be suited by a stamina test now sent hurdling

13:30 Punchestown Handicap Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

The Henry De Bromhead stable has had a fine start to the season and RING O ROSES looks just the type to improve for stepping up in trip after an encouraging second over shorter at Gowran Park last month. A 3lb rise for that effort seems manageable and she can get the better of recent course second American Money and Dancing Jeremy, who could hardly have been more impressive when winning from the front here in October. Lazer Wolf (second) had the eye-catching Morricone (fourth) behind when runner-up at this track last month, and both are likely to be thereabouts again.

A competitive handicap. LAZER WOLF made an encouraging start to his handicap career when second over 2m here last month and can build on that and go one better now. If Ring O Roses can brush up a little on her jumping she's likely to be a major threat under Rachael Blackmore. American Money and Dancing Jeremy are others for the shortlist.

This longer trip should suit LAZER WOLF who finished second over 2m here last month. Fourth-placed Morricone rates a serious threat

This has all the hallmarks of a good quality renewal, as the likes of the unbeaten A Penny A Hundred, progressive Banntown Girl and consistent Jetara all have plenty to offer. However, MEL MONROE, a commendable second in the Monksfield at Navan last time, has performed admirably in defeat in the face of two stern tests so far this season, and can make it third-time lucky with the trip and ground both looking ideal.

MAYOR'S WALK and A Penny A Hundred do not possess the same depth of form as some of these but they're both very promising fillies and look ready for this step up in class. The latter is 2-2 and isn't passed over lightly but Mayor's Walk is marginally preferred. Banntown Girl is just about the form pick and is third choice ahead of Jetara and Mel Monroe.

As a battle-hardened performer who has prospered this season BANNTOWN GIRL may have the resources to beat A Penny A Hundred

The market may prove informative with regards to the chances of the Willie Mullins-trained duo, with Micro Manage and Elixir D'Ainay both returning from a lengthy spell on the sidelines. The latter mixed it with the best novices around in early 2020 and could be a cut above these if picking up where he left off, but the vote goes to the match-fit TACTICAL AFFAIR. Gordon Elliott's four-year-old only just hung on to make a successful hurdling bow at Cork 16 days ago but has scope for plenty of improvement and represents an in-form yard.

There should be more to come from last month's Cork winner TACTICAL AFFAIR and he may be able to follow up. The Willie Mullins pair, Elixir D'Ainay and Micro Manage are both returning from long absences but are feared most nonetheless.

Given the relatively short duration of his absence, MICRO MANAGE may beat stablemate Elixir D'Ainay, not seen since March 2020

It is difficult to look past DUFFYS GETAWAY, who was an impressive winner on his return over slightly further at Fairyhouse last month. The six-year-old has similar conditions again, and he can overcome a 9lb rise, while upholding form with the progressive Kiln Time (second), who has won at Wexford and been second at Tramore since. Merry Moves bounced back to form with a solid placed effort at Fairyhouse last month and she also needs considering. Completing the shortlist are the likes of Lizlucky, Mahler Appeal and No Fussing.

DUFFYS GETAWAY justified market confidence back form a break when beating Kiln Time (winner since) at Fairyhouse 5 weeks ago and remains of interest. Kiln Time has continued to improve since so may emerge as the main threat again, while Spice Diva was still very much in the mix when exiting the race through no fault of her own on handicap bow at Down Royal last month.

Much improved over this trip at Fairyhouse last month, DUFFYS GETAWAY (nap) can defy a 9lb rise and confirm form with Kiln Time

KISH BANK's dam was a useful hurdler and this four-year-old could be pretty decent himself judged on his facile success between the flags last month. Gordon Elliott's charge is likely to be a warm order on his debut under Rules and looks the one to beat, although Ufouria may be no pushover. She ran up to the highly-promising Only By Night on her debut at Limerick in October and Paul Nolan's mare gets a handy 7lb from the selection. Slieve Carran had Seatoit (fourth) and A Tipp For Gold (ninth) in arrears when second at Thurles last month and could prove best of the remainder.

KISH BANK makes a quick switch to a bumper on the back of his ready point win last month and will likely take plenty of stopping for the Gordon Elliott team. Paul Nolan's Limerick runner-up Ufouria can fill the forecast spot ahead of Royal Cave.

Not a strong bumper for the venue and point-to-point winner KISH BANK could be well up to making a winning start under Rules
