FormscanBy Mark Nunan - VISIOMAN is the one to beat here after a pleasing chase debut at Limerick last month. Henry de Bromhead’s French-bred was beaten less than a length into third by Mega Mindy and From Eden, who are both now rated in the 120s, and he’s shown a liking for this track as well with two runner-up efforts over hurdles. Dasmyhoss starts here for Philip Rothwell and won a handicap hurdle at this venue in June when trained by Andrew McNamara. He’s had two good placed runs over fences, and was unlucky not to have finished closer at Tramore last week when he was hampered a couple of times. Ar Eagla Na Heagla has won on the Flat and over hurdles, and her chasing debut fourth to Grey Waters was a creditable effort while four-time hurdle winner Rain In Spain was running a fair race when she came down two out on her chasing bow at Tipperary.
