FormscanBy Tom Weekes - CIANKYLE has won five handicap hurdles and can get off the mark on his fifth chase outing today. He is a good performer at this type of level over hurdles and was in the process of running a good race on handicap chase debut at Clonmel when falling at the second last. He may have finished second in that race and a reproduction of that would give him every chance today and is well proven at this trip and on reasonable ground. Hoke Colburn has been running well enough for his new yard in recent times and while well enough held at Galway latest, is reunited with his 7lbs claimer today which offsets his big weight. John Ryan runs three horses, and Le Hachette can prove best of the trio. She was well held when chasing black-type on her latest run but did win over fences at Tramore in August. Cluain Dara has won just once in 41 starts but wasn't beaten too far at Killarney latest while The Chapel Field makes his handicap chase debut but is rated 10lbs higher than over hurdles. Hilltop Supreme has yet to win in 15 starts but had some place prospects when falling at Listowel 22 days ago.
