FormscanBy Tom Weekes - CUSHINSTOWN FINEST might prove best in a winneable contest. CUSHINSTOWN FINEST has progressed well in recent months and while she has won just one chase in 11 starts, she has been running well in defeat, is proven testing ground and while she is a proven stayer, has winning form at this type of trip with her rider again claiming a very useful 7lbs. Waitnsee is 1lbs ahead of the selection on adjusted-ratings (including claims) and while she is another able type, her best form is on good ground. She has been well when sent black-type hunting on her latest runs and while today's race is much less competitive, she will encounter unsuitably testing ground. Minx Tiara makes her chase debut but is a contender having shown useful hurdles form. She is rated 119 over hurdles and receiving 5lbs, should get involved at the business end and is nicely experienced over hurdles and also finished third on her point-to-point debut in 2019. New Money was second in a weak race at Naas in January but has place claims today.
