Formscan By Gary Carson - CAPE GENTLEMAN has been very impressive on both his outings over fences and looks the one to beat here. Emmet Mullins' charge pulled away with ease from a good bunch of horses in a Cork Grade 3 late last month and shouldn't be too inconvenienced by dropping back in trip here having shown plenty of gears when winning over a similar distance here on his chase debut. The filly Riviere D'etel gets a nice lump of weight from the selection and she could be the danger. The lightly-raced daughter of Martaline was also an easy winner on her chase debut at Fairyhouse last month and gets all the allowances in this Grade 2 contest. Embittered sets the standard off a mark of 142 and is another that has to come into calculations. %0A
