Plenty of runners here but few with realistic prospects. Danali looks an obvious contender after a much-improved effort over slightly further at Limerick, where she would have finished closer but for a mistake at the last - she has the beating of Seeking Susan on that run. Goulane Davina had looked a likely future winner before a moderate run at Limerick though this longer trip should suit. FREEWAY SPACE has finished runner-up in three bumpers after landing a point-to-point in November and can make a winning start back over obstacles. Ashes Of Love couldn't handle Grade 3 company last time but her earlier run at Punchestown puts her in the frame.
