After a good run at Limerick in December, Reach Up was well supported at Tramore on New Year's Day but fell 5 out when in the lead. The race was won by CRAZYHEART, who subsequently ran well over hurdles here before unseating his rider back over fences at Thurles. He's taken to get back to winning ways as winning hurdler Fairly Legal has shown very little in six starts over fences. My Manekineko was beaten a neck by Dylrow at Fairyhouse last month, his only real sign of ability over fences, but he reverted to type when last of six at Down Royal. The remaining trio look to have plenty to do.
