Race Tip

Willie Mullins has won five of the last six renewals but a chance is taken with FRENCH DYNAMITE, who will relish the sound surface on handicap chase debut. Once a 150-rated hurdler, he bounced back to form at Thurles, beating Ciel De Neige, and can win from his 144 chase rating. Fighter Allen, a half-brother to Envoi Allen, is Paul Townend's pick and while his form can be in-and-out, is unexposed on handicap chase debut. He faces a stiffer task than when winning at Tramore but is suited by this distance and surface. Birchdale is 8lb higher than when winning the Leopardstown Chase but is also ideally suited by conditions. Blue Sari has twice failed to cope with Galopin Des Champs and carries top weight but has chase form, on easy ground. Lieutenant Command was challenging Gabbys Cross when exiting at Naas in February and is 8lbs better off while progressive Gevrey, fourth at Naas, is in good form from a light weight. Rightplacerighttime is 2lb out of the handicap and would prefer going
