FormscanBy Tom Weekes - JUDGEMENT DAY has taken very well to fences and looks capable of completing a hat-trick of wins here. He failed to win in three bumpers and six hurdles but has shown improved form over fences and comes here fit and well and proven as a good ground performer. Dropping back in trip to 2m4f might not be totally ideal but he has winning form at this trip. Mill Quest has been kept busy and continues to do well. She was beaten at odds-on at Bangor latest but was beaten by a useful ex-Irish horse and she should be able to figure prominently today with trip and going in her favour. Polar Present ran well over fences at Fairyhouse latest and while she receives 7lbs from the top two, might need to improve a little to win today.
