FormscanBy Gary Carson - HA D'OR was sent off a short price when falling in a valuable handicap chase here at the festival meeting in April and is interesting on his return. The French-bred had some very strong novice form prior to that run, including finishing runner-up in Grade 3 company, and looks like the type that can win a nice handicap this season. Henry de Bromhead runs three in this with Rachael Blackmore getting the leg up on Walk Away. The ten-year-old ran a nice race on his return from a long absence at Tipperary in May and unseated last time in the Cork National. He could still be on a nice mark. Mars Harper won twice before finding life tougher in the Munster National but is another to consider in a handy field.
