FormscanBy Mark Nunan - The market suggested RUN FOR OSCAR would come on for the run at Killarney when he was a respectable fifth in a useful staying contest on the Flat. That was an encouraging effort after a long lay-off and the talented dual-purpose performer was in good form in similar conditions events over hurdles this time last year. This looks a nice opportunity for him. HMS Seahorse won well on his last start over hurdles and is fairly treated at the weights. Custom Taylor was last seen when winning a competitive handicap over a longer trip in April. He’s entitled to improve for the outing but is unexposed while the veteran Lord Erskine ran with credit in the Galway Hurdle. %0A%0A
