Jockey Andrew Lynch is hopeful the talented but injury-prone Go All The Way is ready to make his presence felt in the Ladbrokes Handicap Chase at Killarney this evening.

The Jim Dreaper-trained eight-year-old has made just 10 competitive appearance during his career, but looked the part when winning his first two starts over fences at the County Kerry track last summer before falling when chasing the hat-trick at Cheltenham in October.

Go All The Way was then out of action for eight months until finishing an encouraging third at Killarney last month.

Lynch said: "He had a good run there at the last meeting over two miles and I think stepping up to two and a half will suit him better.

"His last run was his first for a while, so hopefully he's improved and I'd be expecting a good run tomorrow.

"He's a horse who has had an awful lot of problems and the hardest thing is trying to keep him in one piece.

"If he gets there in one piece tomorrow he'll run well."

Go All The Way will aim to give weight to 14 rivals in the €28,500 contest.

Paul Flynn 's 2011 Galway Hurdle winner Moon Dice was well beaten in this year's renewal of the Ballybrit feature, but the County Longford trainer is hoping for better as he goes back over the larger obstacles.

He said: "It's probably the weakest chase he's run in handicap-wise, but I don't know what to expect.

"He seems in good form at home, as well as he's been for a while, but we just want to get his confidence up again.

"He didn't really get home on his last run over fences at Down Royal, but we'll ride him a bit differently tomorrow. We'll drop him in and take our time.

"I'm hoping for a good run. I'm hopeful rather than confident."

Champion trainer Willie Mullins has Toostrong and Sicilian Secret in the field, while other contenders include Noel Meade's Fisher Bridge Henry de Bromhead's Theshowisover and Tony Martin's veteran Another Ambition

Murchu and Heavenly Brook are the two reserves.
