Punchestown
Sat 22nd Nov

Formscan By John O'Riordan - A promising third on his racecourse debut at Punchestown in February, the Charles Byrnes-trained ROJUCO MAC can make a winning reappearance. The form of that contest looked above average at the time and, the fourth horse proved that theory right when subsequently landing his bumper. Unlikely to want for fitness coming from these quarters, the Soldier Of Fortune gelding can make the breakthrough on this second start. Runner-up on both appearances under Rules to date, Grandy Lane shouldn't be long in registering a first victory. Down Royal bumper scorer Ballyfad has to carry a penalty for that success but the former point-to-point winner has to be respected in his bid to maintain his unbeaten record.
