FormscanBy Donal Murphy - This is a competitive contest and the consistent SON AMIX looks the one to side with. The Tom Cooper trained grey has been off the track since New Year's Eve but he rarely runs and bad race and returning to smaller obstacles he should go close. Willie Mullins is again double handed with Sweet My Lord and Bishopsfurze. The former has been disappointing over fences and returns to hurdling here with Paul Townend seemingly siding with him over Bishopsfurze. That fellow will be ridden by David Casey and he is unlucky not to be three from three around the course. He too is returning to hurdles is given second preference behind the selection. Folsom Blue disappointed on his seasonal reappearance at Naas recently but with that run under his belt a better performance can be expected. Dancing Tornado ended a long losing streak at Limerick last time out and that win may have revitalised the veteran.
