FormscanBy Tom Weekes - NOTEBOOK performed well in his first maiden hurdle at Wexford last month and looks good enough to win here. A point to point winner, he was beaten by a useful winner at Wexford and while he did receive 8lbs, the third horse is also quite useful and today's step up in trip is likely to suit NOTEBOOK. Salty Boy has shown a consistently and fairy useful level of ability. A point to point winner on debut, he again proved his stamina in two useful maiden hurdle efforts (he wasn't beaten far is a Listowel maiden which has worked out well) and while he may have preferred further a longer trip when disappointing in his Downpatrick bumper, it was still a little disappointing and he may find the selection too strong today. Bold Gesture has his first start for Gordon Elliott here but he has shown little in two previous runs and it is hardly a positive that connections have opted to skip a bumper with him now. Ask Mary is very interesting on hurdles debut, having won four point-to-points. She is very hard to assess in the context of today's race and did pull up on her only previous chase run last May.
