FormscanBy Michael Graham - No less than seven of these horses won on their latest starts. The form of L'EVANGELISTE's clear-cut victory at Galway received a significant boost when the runner-up came out and won decisively in Thurles. The step up in trip shouldn't inconvenience this former point-to-point winner. There was a lot to like about the way Maverick Mack asserted to win on hurdling debut at Gowran Park, so his chance has to be respected. There should be plenty of improvement to come from Chase The Moon who delivered on debut at Gowran Park, while the Gavin Cromwell pair of Kamino Bello and Court Canyon will have their supporters in addition to Henry de Bromhead's Some Song.
