Formscan By Donal Murphy - This looks a good opportunity for ANGOSTURA. Out of three-time victor Tearsofclewbay, the five-year-old ran in two point-to-point's when in the care of Ian McCarthy. Third at Boulta in December, he was a place ahead of subsequent Dromahane winner Good N' Kind, with that one a leading hope in the bumper. Beaten by just half-a-length on his debut for Gordon Elliott in a much stronger contest at Navan last month, the selection will be widely expected to go a place better now. Getting a weight allowance on account of his age, Tranquil Sea is the obvious danger. He ran his best race to date when second in handicap company at Punchestown in January and back in calmer waters now, another bold bid looks likely. A son of eight-time winner Jennies Jewel, Tommies Call has been disappointing since finishing a fine third on debut in the valuable Tattersalls Ireland Sales Bumper and he is probably best watched for now. Declan Queally is double-handed through point-to-point winner Manatee Du Brizais and newcomer Rocky's Diamond, with the latter a half-brother to The Little Yank (runs in the fourth). Barry Connell also saddles two - Farrokh and Tannery Park, and in a race of this quality they both warrant respect.
