Hello Neighbour and Lady Vega Allen are closely matched on their Grade 2 form here over Christmas and the latter has claims of reversing the placings having closed all the way to the line. However, we didn't get to see what was under the bonnet of SAINTE LUCIE when she bolted up at Punchestown. With that form working out okay and Townend preferring her to three stablemates, she edges the vote. [Phill Anderson]

No.	Selection	Form		Guide	ToteWin	TotePlace
1	Bacchanalian S Fitzgerald / D Queally	4yrs / 11st 0lb 421 Spotlight	128	25/1
Bacchanalian Off the mark at the third attempt over hurdles at Fairyhouse three weeks ago having run well in two maiden hurdles previously; not the strongest form and he'll need a big step forward markedly up in grade.
2	Hello Neighbour K M Donoghue / G P Cromwell	4yrs / 11st 0lb 1 Spotlight	139	9/4	8.50
Hello Neighbour Unbeaten in three starts, two Flat wins before justifying favouritism in a Grade 2 here on St Stephen's Day, holding on grimly in the closing stages to get the better of re-opposing Lady Vega Allen; was keen early in that contest and a hood is now reached for; should be a major player if the headgear works.
3	Sony Bill D E Mullins / W P Mullins	4yrs / 11st 0lb 14-F23 Spotlight	131	16/1
Sony Bill Some smart juvenile form in France last year before 200,000euros sale and finished 7l behind Hello Neighbour and Lady Vega Allen on yard debut on St Stephen's Day; will need to settle better to have any hope of reversing form but that first run in 201 days may help take the edge off; might ultimately appreciate a bit further than this.
4	Wendrock Sam Ewing / G Elliott	4yrs / 11st 0lb 31 Spotlight	128	20/1	17.10
Wendrock Two promising runs for Lucinda Russell before 82,000gns yard switch and improved on his yard debut at Navan to win a maiden hurdle here in December; his latest piece of form has taken a knock or two so he's going to need improvement.
5	Willy De Houelle B Hayes / W P Mullins	4yrs / 11st 0lb 12-26 Spotlight	134	22/1	64.20	1.10
Willy De Houelle Shaped well behind Nietzsche Has (subsequent Chepstow Grade 2 winner retired to stud) when runner-up in Auteuil Listed race but turned over at 1-4 on yard debut at Fairyhouse (Grade 3) and behind a few of these in Grade 2 over Christmas (failed to settle in first-time hood - retained); almost certainly more to come at some stage but hard to envisage him landing this.
6	Galileo Dame J J Slevin / J P O'brien	4yrs / 10st 7lb 2 Spotlight	124	14/1	34.20	1.02
Galileo Dame Useful on the Flat (rated 96) and encouraging hurdle bow behind Wendrock when beaten 2l here in December; entitled to improve from that first outing over timber but others bring stronger form to the table.
7	Lady Vega Allen S F O'keeffe / W P Mullins	4yrs / 10st 7lb 12 Spotlight	138	3/1	4.50	1.50
Lady Vega Allen Nice pedigree and won her sole start in France before narrow defeat to Hello Neighbour in a Grade 2 here on yard bow; closed all the way to the line and claims of reversing that form but Townend prefers Sainte Lucie.
8	Sainte Lucie P Townend / W P Mullins	4yrs / 10st 7lb 3-1 Spotlight	141	7/4	1.20	1.40
Sainte Lucie Stayed on okay for third in a juvenile mares' contest at Auteuil; the form of that race took a few knocks but she couldn't have been any more impressive when landing a Punchestown maiden hurdle on debut for this yard in December; the second, third and fourth have all hit the crossbar since, so the form looks okay and there's probably more to come from her, making her the one to beat with Townend on.
