FormscanBy Alan Magee - ARGENTO BOY needs to bounce back after a disappointing effort at Leopardstown last time but still looks the one to beat on overall form. The Jukebox Jury gelding easily won a Fairyhouse bumper on debut last year and made an encouraging reappearance when switched to hurdles over an extended 2m5f here in November. He beat all bar The Big Westerner, who subsequently won a Grade 2 at Limerick, with Son Of Anarchy over 20 lengths behind in fourth and the long-time absent Flemensface well beaten in sixth. Minella Post was placed on both bumper starts and has also shown promise over hurdles including here behind James’s Gate.
A hurdle for four years old and upwards, maidens at startingWeights - 4-y-o 10st 12lbs 5-y-o and up 11st 12lbs Mares allowed 7lbs
