FormscanBy Mark Nunan - GIBRALTAR looks the best of Willie Mullins’ trio and can follow up his comfortable win at Leopardstown. He’s gone up 8lb and has an extra furlong to travel but perhaps his ability to handle this very different track is the main concern for the Tamayuz gelding. Stablemate Dark Voyager has run a couple of solid races in defeat in 2m handicaps at the Curragh and Galway and certainly has his chance again. Stellium, a maiden winner on this card a year ago, bumped into a very well-handicapped winner at Ballinrobe and that was his third time to be placed this summer. Whether he wants to go 2m is the question mark against his name. Sheishybrid was a couple of places behind Stellium when catching the eye at the Curragh back in May. She won over hurdles recently and gives the impression that she could improve for stepping up to this trip.
