FormscanBy Mark Nunan - An ordinary contest can go the way of IMPAKT ST GEORGES who has acquired a fair bit of experience and ran well when fourth at Wexford last time.The Coastal Path gelding wasn't far off a 109-rated rival who finished a place ahead of him and stepping back up in trip should suit. Huntsgrove was placed in a couple of bumpers last year and has run creditably in his first two starts over hurdles. John Ryan's runner was returning from a long absence when chasing home two useful performers at Ballinrobe last month. Confidential Gosip has twice run well over 2m4f at Bellewstown this year and now takes a big drop in trip after an unplaced run at Killarney.
