FormscanBy Michael Graham - TOLL STONE could be one that improves for a step up in trip. He has been placed in his last couple of handicap hurdles and is a half-brother to a horse who won over an extended 2m6f at Stratford. Jacovec Cavern was a wide-margin winner of the race in Punchestown that Toll Stone finished third in. He's clearly in a good place at the minute albeit the handicapper has had his say. Grann's Boy is more than capable of a big run on his first visit to Ballinrobe as he's a horse with a good strike rate. Winning Smut, with first-time cheekpieces, and Collaborative, with a visor fitted, are two others for consideration.

An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards (140 = 11st 12lbs)
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race or hurdle races after calculation of the handicap shall carry any penalty or penalties which may be allotted by the Handicapper.
