2/7
13/2, best effort over fences when third of 7 in beginners chase at Punchestown (22.8f, heavy) 4 weeks ago, well positioned throughout. A repeat should be enough to get off the mark in this sphere.

Made more impact than previously when second of 13 in handicap chase at Navan (24f, heavy, 20/1) 57 days ago. Task is now to build on that effort.

11/2
16/1, failed to make the anticipated improvement switched to a handicap when eighth of 12 at Punchestown (22.8f, heavy) 4 weeks ago. Makes chase debut. Hooded for 1st time. Could do better and this is a thin contest.

Won over hurdles at Limerick in December. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, didn't last out straight back over hurdles when pulled up at Navan (22f, heavy, 28/1) 5 weeks ago. Yet to cut much ice over fences but is a multiple winning pointer.

Forecasts

Klarc Kent (2/7), Jasmin De Cotte (11/2), Aghmorough Bridge (10/1), Starlight Cato (12/1), Arctic Skua (25/1)

Verdict

KLARC KENT has shown fairly useful form on both completed starts in this sphere and a repeat of either of those efforts should see Willie Mullins' 8-y-o open his account over fences. Chasing debutant Jasmin de Cotte can chase the selection home.
