DREAL DEAL has a 5lb penalty for yet another very easy victory at Punchestown on Wednesday and will go up by much more when reassessed. His two recent victories over timber have been over much further but he's shown plenty of pace in his two Flat successes so victory number five looks on the cards. Ellipsism won twice over timber last autumn and made a very promising chasing debut at Limerick in March. He'll be back over fences before long but can pick up some prize money here. Young Dev isn't very consistent but could run into a place at his best while Charlie Siringo makes his handicap debut after showing his first sign of ability at Wexford.
