FormscanBy Mark Nunan - EDGE OF MY SEAT made the frame a couple of times on the Flat last year and has twice run well over hurdles at this venue. Keen when sixth at Tipperary last month, the fitting of a hood may help her to settle and an in-form claimer rides. Runner-up at Naas and third at Wexford, Only One Plan is handicapped to win one of these and is likely to contend again. Be My Hero ran his best race so far when second at Wexford and hasn’t been with Gordon Elliott all that long so may be capable of further improvement. A winner over 1m4f at Dundalk last year, The Virginian shaped well after a lay-off when fifth at Punchestown and represents a yard which enjoyed a double on Saturday.%0A
