FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - You'd have to think that WAAHEB might have the 'toe' to beat this lot over two miles. The Elusive Quality gelding has done very little wrong in his racing life so far and despite this looking a pretty hot contest, the minimum trip is the factor that sways one very definitely in the direction of Dermot Weld's runner. Davy Russell prefers Balnaslow of the Gigginstown House Stud-owned pair and he's a big contender too, no doubt. He's the same as the selection in that he has one hurdling win to his name but he also has jumping experience from the point-to-point fields. Home Farm is a nice horse for the future but this is a big ask at this stage. Rory O'Moore was put up 16Ibs by the handicapper for his Naas demolition from the front, of the well-touted Operating. His hurdling left a bit to be desired at stages there and he'll hardly get such a solo run in this. It'll be fascinating to see how impressive point-to-point winner, Foxrock gets on, but it would be a fair surprise were he up to troubling the principals at this juncture.
