FormscanBy Tom Weekes - A chance is taken with KITTEN ROCK, who would roll back the years with a win here. A high class prospect in 2014/15, he finished sixth in Faugheen's 2015 Champion Hurdle and while he has had numerous training problems in the interim, he seemed to return to some form with a pleasing enough run in the recent Leopardstown Chase. He was beaten 25L then but beat plenty rivals and today's race is a much lesser contest, with the drop in trip unlikely to inconvenience. Mitchouka was a course and distance winner a fortnight ago and is an obvious contender. His form had been in-and-out in recent times and while he does need to replicate his form, he should go well again today despite a 5lbs hike and meeting softer ground conditions. Kildorrery is useful at this level and while well enough beaten at Fairyhouse last month, that was a better contest than today's race and he is well suited by this trip. Spades Are Trumps has a potentially interesting handicap chase mark but would ideally prefer a longer trip.
