Formscan By Shane Redmond - The four-year-old WILD BILL HICKOK (5) was well on top when reversing earlier form with long odds-on favourite Workahead to win at Roscommon in early June and might just follow up. His experience over fences should stand to him and he's taken to defy his 4lb penalty. Soir De Garde made his share of mistakes when winning on his chasing debut at Wexford but he could well do better this time and rates as the danger ahead of Shadow Paddy, another with a 4lb penalty to carry after his wins at Limerick, where he beat today's rival Le Coq Hardi, and Killarney.

A novice steeplechase for four years old and upwards
Weights - 4-y-o 10st 7lbs 5-y-o and up 11st 1lbs. Mares allowed 7lbs.
Penalties - Winner of two steeplechases 4lb extra Of three steeplechases or a Grade 3 steeplechase 7lb extra Of two Grade 3 steeplechases or a Grade 2 steeplechase 9lb extra Of a Grade 1 steeplechase 13lb extra
