FormscanBy Tom Weekes - THE BIG WESTERNER carries top weight on her seasonal reappearance but will be ideally suited by heavy ground conditions. The selection’s performances have been limited due to her need for testing ground but she is a smart stayer who scored at Grade 1-level last Christmas. Similarly, Bossofthebrownies needs testing ground and while he has won just once, is lightly-raced and showed smart ability in staying novices last season. His third-placing in a Punchestown Grade 2 reads well and should give the selection a race. The Enabler finished third in the Irish National in April but returns in this smart race.
