FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Defeats at Castletown-Geoghegan and Mainstown don't look great on paper, but reading between the lines Enda Bolger was probably just building GILGAMBOA back up, and boy did the ten-year-old look to be coming back to his best at Thurles last time. In fairness Foxrock likely 'blew up' then, but it was certainly impressive the way Gilgamboa put ten lengths between himself and that classy rival from the back of the last. I described him in a piece I wrote elsewhere as a new kid on the block, and Burning Ambition is going to get a big test now. Rob James' 7Ib claim is a help, and if he can continue on his way to the top of the hunter chase tree here, Burning Ambition will head towards Cheltenham with a lot of confidence behind him. Last term's champion point-to-pointer, Ourmanmassini, and indeed former Thyestes hero, My Murphy, can't be taken lightly. Quiet Account has a lot on his plate.
