Formscan By Mark Nunan - Linford had five and a half lengths to spare over CAISLEAN GEAR (4) at Roscommon in June, when recording his second success in bumpers. Willie Mullins' runner was building on an easy debut victory at Killarney and there is little doubt that he will go off a short price in his bid for a hat-trick. Even though Caislean Gear is 4lb worse off for this rematch, the locally-owned runner has garnered more experience since and put behind him a disappointing run at Limerick when making all at Killarney. Mindyourheadmike has switched stables since landing a gamble at Clonmel, while the form of Farney Bridge's big-priced win last month was let down by the runner-up on Thursday. %0A%0A%0A
