Let Yourself Go was pulled out of the Lexus due to the testing ground and won't want any more rain. His earlier close second to Tranquil Sea in the Grade 2 Clonmel Oil Chase was an excellent run however. Psycho comfortably saw off Osana and other useful opponents at Naas in November but put in a poor round of jumping when sent to Cheltenham for a Grade 3 handicap subsequently and will need to get that effort out of his system. CLAN TARA may be good enough for this as his head second to Pandorama in a similar race to this at Punchestown in October 2009 is the stand-out form here and he was still in touch when falling five out in the Paddy Power at Leopardstown last week, his first start for over a year. Quiscover Fontaine landed a bumper on his debut for Willie Mullins at Punchestown in 2008, has scored three times over timber and won his first two chase starts. He was aimed very high on his two runs over fences in the spring and looks one to follow later this season.
