Formscan By John O'Riordan - Just touched off over course and distance last time, URBS INTACTA MANET(5) can go one better. Also placed on his penultimate outing over fences, the John Flavin-trained gelding comes into this race in better form than the majority of his rivals. Still relatively unexposed as a chaser, the son of Lucky Speed holds strong claims. A Year Older, who ran below par over hurdles here on his latest appearance, may be worth forgiving that run. Trainer Karl Thornton does well at this venue and his gelding is a previous course winner here. Kilkee Bay and Thorntons' other runner Attaboyarchie are others to consider.

Quotes on A Year Older (IRE)
He’s a grand horse. These stores would want to come with a health warning, they just take forever,. We bought him at Tattersalls. Just by the stallion, he has no page whatsoever. He’s a good-looking horse, very correct. I got him cheap enough, five grand, but nobody had looked at the passport and when we got him home we discovered he was a four-year-old, not a three-year-old. That’s why we called him A Year Older. He jumps and he’s slow. He’ll do a job somewhere, he has the same mark over fences. The nicer ground probably helped him and there might be another day in him.

Quotes on Kilkee Bay (IRE)
He’s a grand horse. He came from Gordon’s a while back and he’s been disappointing a couple of times. Joey said they went a real good gallop and I’d say it played to a late closer. Joey gave him a brilliant ride. They went a bit quick and I’d say conditions just fell right for him, more than anything else. There weren’t too many horses in the race gave themselves chances of winning. I wouldn’t go over-reacting but it was lovely to get it. He has been a disappointing horse, his work is okay at home. Hopefully he might get a bit of confidence and build on that now.
