FormscanBy John O'Riordan - A winner at Ballinrobe on his second start over hurdles, NICKY LARSON(1) can follow up. Following a promising introduction at Limerick, the Paul Nolan-trained gelding built on that run to open his account at the County Mayo track. Despite having to carry a penalty now, he looks the most solid option. Third to the selection at Ballinrobe, No Bother Aoife is entitled to get closer at the revised weights. With the Gavin Cromwell horses back firing on all cylinders after a quiet spell, the daughter of Cotai Glory holds decent claims. Nod Of Approval was one of the highest rated of these on the Flat and is entitled to improve from his debut in that aforementioned Ballinrobe contest.
