Formscan - Saved for this having swerved the Gold Cup, GREY DAWNING should be cherry ripe after a comfortable success at Kelso. Runner-up in the Betfair Chase before disappointing in the King George, the eight-year-old has a preference for going left-handed and remains unexposed over staying trips. Similar to the selection, Spillane's Tower didn't show his true colours in the Kempton showpiece, but he has strong claims on the form of his previous second to Fact To File in the John Durkan. Jimmy Mangan's charge may prefer softer ground, but he thrived this time last year and is a leading contender. Ahoy Senor fell in the Gold Cup, but has been runner-up in the last two renewals of this contest. Gaelic Warrior may not have shown much in two starts at Leopardstown this campaign, but he scored over 3m at Punchestown as a novice hurdler and stepping back up in trip could be a shrewd move by Willie Mullins.
