FormscanBy Gary Carson - DUTCH SCHULTZ ran well on his first outing in handicap company over fences at Clonmel last month and looks capable of striking now. The Golden Horn gelding chased home Mick Charlie then and that form looks solid with the first four home coming into the race off the back of good efforts. Hardwired brings winning form into the race, having scored at Punchestown last time. He's not the most straightforward but should be there or thereabouts again. De Lady In Red hasn't been far away in her last couple of runs and looks capable of going well. She wasn't helped by stumbling going to the second last at Fairyhouse last time and remains relatively unexposed over fences.
