FormscanBy Gary Carson - Willie Mullins saddles four in this and there is only a couple of pound between three of them so it looks a desperately tricky affair. Ruby Walsh sides with RIVEN LIGHT and the better ground now should suit him. He won his maiden in good style on similar ground to this at Thurles and ran well despite some sloppy jumping when upped to Grade 1 level at Leopardstown on just his second hurdles outing. He has been a bit under that level on winter ground since but didn't run too badly in a Grade 2 at Fairyhouse last time and this looks a nice opportunity now. Montalbano actually finished in front of the selection at Fairyhouse, just holding him at bay for third, and has to be given serious consideration. Chateau Conti, who pulled up in that race, obviously need to show more now. Castlegrace Paddy is a nice sort but may find life tougher here having won just an average looking maiden at Gowran last month. Gordon Elliott saddles three and Morgan, who couldn't give weight away to the progressive Lachares at Limerick, may prove the pick. Bryan Cooper prefers Avenir D'Une Vie in the same Gigginstown colours, however. He has a bit to find with a few of these on his running at Fairyhouse.%0A
