FormscanBy John O'Riordan - NUMANTIA(8), who sets a decent standard in this finale, should prove difficult to beat. A strong-finishing fourth on his debut at the Curragh in May, the Donnacha O'Brien-trained gelding was runner-up back at that same venue next time, before again reaching the frame at the County Kildare track on his most recent appearance. With an official rating of 82, it would be disappointing if he can't get his head in front. Ask Me Again ran well when fifth here over a mile in July before again showing promise at Leopardstown last month. Scorcher's Son ran better than the bare form suggests when sixth in a big field at Navan earlier this month.
