FormscanBy Donal Murphy - I'll side with PAHASKA here. It's unusual to see a four-year-old over fences in Ireland, but her trainer Gordon Elliott done well with Tocororo last year, and he may have a similar plan in mind for the selection. The French import finally shed her maiden tag at Limerick in April, and had three subsequent winners behind her on that occasion. She gets age and sex weight allowances here, and carrying just ten stone two (including Rachael Blackmore's claim), she can be expected to go close. Gigginstown own the selection, and they are also represented by Billy Flight. This Noel Meade trained gelding won on his penultimate start at Ballinrobe, before disappointing at Kilbeggan earlier this month. He makes his debut over fences now, and should give a good account of himself with Bryan Cooper in the plate. Meade also saddles Jack Slade who is sure to have plenty of supporters. He was a fine second at Clonmel recently, and another good effort can be expected from him now. Four time winner Fleurys Fort is another leading contender, along with the Pat Fahy trained Ocean Glandore.
