FormscanBy Donal Murphy - CHINX OF LIGHT is the most inexperienced runner in the line-up but is also the one with the most potential. A winner on his second start at Galway in October when trained by Barry Fitzgerald, he disappointed on debut for his current connections when tried in Grade 3 company at Cork. He bounced back to form when easily winning at Down Royal earlier this month, with his trainer John McConnell later saying: "He is well bred and has a lot of ability I'd say. He could be very good." The Bosses Oscar is the highest rated runner in the line-up on a mark of 143. He pulled up three times in-a-row before running a much better race at Killarney recently, finishing just four-and-a-half lengths behind Shewearsitwell. Whatsnotoknow has won just once from twenty-six career starts. He does however have some very useful form to his name and was a fine seventh of twenty-two in the Pertemps at Cheltenham on his penultimate outing. Fakir has failed to complete on his last three starts and is difficult to fancy, while it'll be interesting to see how Fort Worth Texas fares in first time blinkers.
