FormscanBy John O'Riordan - An impressive scorer over course and distance in early May, SOMERSBY ROOST(6) can make amends for a subsequent poor run at Listowel. While raised 10lb for that aforementioned win, the Oliver McKiernan-trained mare undoubtedly failed to give her true running last time. Back on a sounder surface here and, on a track where she is already proven, the six-year-old can get her season back on track. Arctic Flame hinted at a return to form when runner-up at Clonmel last time. A reproduction of that effort would give the Patrick Foley-trained mare every chance. Lightly raced Downpatrick maiden hurdle winner Surfin Usa is another that has to enter calculations.

An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards mares only (110 = 11st 12lbs)
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.
