Formscan By John O'Riordan - Despite ground concerns and lack of a recent run, BANBRIDGE(2) is hard to get away from. A Grade 1 winner over fences, the Joseph O'Brien-trained gelding is a class apart here. Provided the going doesn't turn really testing, the 10-year-old should get away with 'summer soft'. Another Grade 1 winner over jumps, Western Fold looks the biggest danger. While upcoming races such as the Kerry National could be a short-term target for both these horses, they should be relatively fit this close to the Listowel feature. Galway Hurdle runner-up Thisistheway has fitness on her side and is also proven on more testing ground. She offers a viable alternative and looks the each-way play in a competitive maiden.
