FormscanBy Gary Carson - A tricky looking contest and CHRISALDY may be worth a shot on his handicap debut. The Muhtathir gelding ran with plenty of credit when sixth in a Naas maiden hurdle in late February and on that showing a mark of 90 looks lenient enough. Odds Or Evens didn't run too badly when eighth at Leopardstown last month and it wouldn't be a surprise if he was able to get involved now in a weaker looking contest. Paul Nolan has four runners in this and Bryan Cooper's presence on Glen Robin would suggest he is the stable's first choice. The Robin Des Pres gelding was well held on his handicap debut at Cork in November but could get closer on this better ground.
