Formscan By Mark Nunan - KAISER DE CHANAY ran poorly over course and distance last time, but the ground was very heavy on that occasion and he’s worth another chance. He ran respectably here on seasonal debut, but his claims are largely based on his fifth at Navan in January. The form of that race has worked out well and less testing ground on this occasion should suit the six-year-old. Drombane’s first bumper run wasn’t without merit and he’s tried in a tongue-tie for his hurdling debut. His dam was a smart dual-purpose performer. Fabhcun could be given a chance on the strength of his debut effort at Gowran, but he took a backward step last time. %0A
