Formscan By Mark Nunan - Just the five runners, but it’s a classy contest and proves that trainers have no worries bringing good horses to Sligo. Galway Hurdle winner PUTAPOUNDINTHEJAR (3), who didn’t run in point-to-points, was only a touch novicey at one or two fences when finishing second to Daddy Long Legs in his first chase start at Killarney. He holds Bowensonfire on that form and can go one better, although the latter is better judged on his second in a strong contest at Galway. A Grade 1 winner as a juvenile hurdler, Hello Neighbour defied a mark of 146 to win a Punchestown festival handicap over 2m4f. The Harzand gelding has anything but a soft touch for this chasing debut. %0A
