FormscanBy Tom Weekes - THE RED MENACE is a dual bumper winner who might be able to get off the mark over hurdles stepping up in trip today. He showed plenty ability in winning both bumpers last summer and while he has failed to win three subsequent maiden hurdles, he did show up well on his latest two and the step up in trip could bring about more improvement. Baily Gorse beat the selection at Leopardstown over Christmas and while he was 7L behind him at Punchestown in January, now meets THE RED MENACE on 8lbs better terms. There may be little between the pair but THE RED MENACE, whose second bumper win was at a staying 2m4f bumper trip, might have a little more room for progression over this trip. Castle North has been a little disappointing in bumpers and while he initially showed ability in finishing second twice last term, he comes here with a little to prove today following an ordinary run at Limerick over Christmas and connections have now opted to run him at this trip first time over hurdles, which is a concern. Narcissistic's form in maidens has been a little in-and-out but can get involved on best form. Invincible Cave is a staying type and while well beaten at Down Royal in January, had previously shown some nice hurdles form but needs to show that today.
