FormscanBy Gary Carson - BRELADE sets a good standard here that the less experienced horses have to surpass. He switches back to the smaller obstacles having been beaten when a short enough favourite for a beginners chase at Fairyhouse last month. That wasn't a bad performance by any means though in a strong enough contest and he had previously chased home both Footpad and Petit Mouchoir over fences. A hurdles mark of 141 sets a good mark here. Draconien was very impressive on his Irish debut when cruising home in a Clonmel maiden hurdle. It might be a bit dangerous to take his 12-length win over the 121-rated Mighty Stowaway too literally though as that rival stayed on again after looking well beaten and probably didn't run to that kind of mark. He's undoubtedly a nice sort and getting 5lb off the selection is a big danger. Beyond The Law was also a wide margin winner last time out, in Limerick, but this looks a tougher ask now and similar remarks apply to former pointer Ministerforsport who comes here off a five-race winning streak and also took his maiden hurdle at Limerick over Christmas.
