Reach Up overcame mistakes to get up close home at Punchestown and the six-year-old has more scope than the much more experienced Killarney Court, who made all for a comprehensive victory over hurdles at Downpatrick and reverts to fences on a lower mark. Deans Road looked to be travelling well enough when unseating his rider three out at Kilbeggan, his first start since December, so he's a threat if no worse for the mishap. MRS LOVETT (NAP) is generally thereabouts in decent company and Daryl Jacob travels over for one booked ride so Gordon Elliott's mare is handed the vote. Barna Venture ran poorly when well supported over hurdles at Wexford last time but is much better over fences.
