CILAOS EMERY made a favourable impression when winning a bumper at the Punchestown Festival last season and he was even more impressive when returning with a facile hurdle victory over subsequent winner Joey Sasa at Navan in December. The sky is the limit at this stage for Willie Mullins' charge and he can book his place on the boat to Cheltenham with another success. Stablemate Camelia De Cotte justified skinny odds when scoring on her Irish debut at Tramore and it will be interesting to see how she gets on against the boys in this stronger company, while Art Of Security and Sire Du Berlais are other respected players.
CILAOS EMERY has done nothing but impress so far and another bold-jumping display is expected in his bid to maintain an unbeaten as he steps up in grade. Mick Jazz sets the standard on what has already been achieved and the selection's stablemate Camelia de Cotte is also open to more improvement.

Willie Mullins looks to have a couple of strong chances with The Crafty Butcher and Isleofhopendreams, both of which went very close to landing gambles in competitive handicaps last time, while Exactoris won comfortably on his handicap debut over 2m4f at Leopardstown and this step up in trip is unlikely to inconvenience him. Carrig Cathal, Presenting Percy and Chain Gang are just a few more with claims, but OSCAR SAM shades the verdict. Jessica Harrington's charge produced a career best performance when landing a similarly competitive handicap over this trip at Leopardstown two weeks ago and a 7lb rise might not be enough to anchor him if arriving in the same mood.
THE CRAFTY BUTCHER has, unsurprisingly, been sparked back into life by Willie Mullins and looks to have his name on one of these prizes this season, shaping well at Navan before almost landing a gamble over fences at Leopardstown. He's taken to go one better at the expense of Gordon Elliott-trained pair Sutton Manor and Glenloe.
He has won two chases and two point-to-points at 3m on soft ground. Beaten 2 3/4l by Cantlow when second of 13 at 8-1 on his latest outing in a chase over this course and distance (soft) in November last year.

Enda Bolger relishes the Punchestown Banks and COLOUR SQUADRON looks to be the pick of his string under Mark Walsh. The master handler has won this race six times in the last 10 years and he won a point-to-point easily last month, confirming that he still retains some enthusiasm for the game. Stablemate Auvergnat has a bit to prove, while Love Rory hasn't looked to be the same animal since landing this renewal in 2014. Ballyboker Bridge has won this the last two years and the booking of Davy Russell suggests that he is primed to launch a bold bid once more.
COLOUR SQUADRON is the class act in this field and, while not the most resolute, it wouldn't be the first time a quirky sort has taken well to this unique discipline, so a chance is taken on him following an emphatic win on point debut recently. Usuel Smurfer also arrives on the back of a solid effort between the flags and Auvergnat was shaping well before coming down at Cheltenham last weekend.
Has won five hurdle races and eight chases from 2m to 2m 1f on ground varying from good to soft to soft - heavy. Won on his latest outing in a Grade 1 chase when 1-8fav in the Group 1 Paddy Power Cashcard Chase at Leopardstown over 2m 1f (yielding) in December last year, beating Sizing John by 8l.

This contest revolves around the superstar that is DOUVAN, who embarks here on his last stop before bidding to claim the Queen Mother Champion Chase at Cheltenham next month. Rich and Susannah Ricci's brilliant chaser remains unbeaten since moving to Ireland under the tuition of Willie Mullins and he can land this with the minimum of fuss. Smashing should appreciate a drop in trip and it would be no surprise if Mouse Morris' charge was sent to the front early to try and set a generous pace, while Realt Mor and Draycott Place have plenty to find but are decent animals in their own right.
DOUVAN didn't need to improve to maintain his unbeaten record over fences at Leopardstown over Christmas, and this looks another straightforward assignment prior to his intended engagement at Cheltenham in March. Smashing can emerge next best of the trio in opposition.
Successful in two hurdle races at 2m and 3m 1f on good and soft - heavy ground. Fell having jumped the last when 5-1 at Down Royal over 2m 3f (good) in a chase won by A Toi Phil in November last year on his chase debut.

BE THE HERO was sent off a fairly short price when falling on his chase debut at Down Royal behind subsequent Graded winner A Toi Phil. The son of Oscar had progressed over hurdles and should have no issue getting back to winning ways here. Brightest Flame was disappointing on handicap debut behind Oscar Sam but will be suited by a switch to chasing, while Robin Thyme is open to improvement from his fourth here last month behind Edwulf.
VELOCITY BOY looked set to go close prior to departing 2 out at Naas last month, and he gets the narrow vote to make it fifth time lucky over fences. Be The Hero and Robin Thyme look likely to be in the mix also, in an interesting beginners chase.

Bonny Kate won this contest 12 months ago and arrives here in decent enough form having finished third behind the impressive Champagne West in the Thyestes at Gowran 10 days ago. The step back up in distance will no doubt bring about further improvement but there is an argument that last year's runner-up BAIE DES ILES can overturn that form off better terms. She was fifth in the Welsh National last time behind Native River when not finding the ground soft enough and conditions should be more suitable for Ross O'Sullivan's mare. Roi Des Francs has shaped as though a step up in distance could bring out further improvement along with Sambremont.
ROI DES FRANCS had a tough assignment in an ultra-competitive handicap off 157 last time, so there was no disgrace in a mid-field finish, and he's expected to take a much closer hand now 3 lb lower in a lesser race. Bonny Kate and As de Pique arrive in excellent form, but the selection's class may ultimately tell.
A winner of a point-to-point at 3m. Beaten 3/4l by Next Destination when second of 5 at 7-2 on his latest outing in a NH flat race at Fairyhouse over 2m (soft) last month.

Clitandre makes his debut for the all-conquering Willie Mullins having finished runner-up in a point-to-point last February but this looks a solid enough bumper to start off in and several of these have solid reputations including JUDGEMENT DAY, a winner of his point-to-point who is entitled to benefit from his Rules debut at Limerick when runner-up to Ballyluskey and is capable of taking a big step forward. Oakley Hall has shown a good attitude on both his starts and a win doesn't look far away, while Derrinross was second on New Year's Day behind Next Destination and merits respect.
CLITANDRE represents the yard who took this race 12 months ago with Battleford, and he could well be worth chancing on the back of a runners-up effort between the flags. Derrinross and Oakley Hall are both expected to be firmly in the mix also, however.
