FormscanBy Tom Weekes - UNFLINCHING showed nice ability in winning a good-ground point-to-point last April and looks to be quite useful. Out of a Flat Listed-placed dam, he is unproven on heavy ground but was purchased by top jumping owners for 150,000 pounds following his pointing success. That form has received a boost as the runner-up is now a capable hunter chaser. Jessbers Wish is a notable bumper runner for his yard and he showed nice ability in finishing third in a useful Liscarroll maiden last March. Catalani is a capable triple point-to-point winner but tackles a different discipline here.
