FormscanBy Michael Graham - L'EVANGELISTE showed up well in second on hurdling debut at Listowel. He got to within two lengths of the odds-on favourite who had previously finished second in the Champion Bumper at the Cheltenham Festival. Mullaghgloss landed a bumper at this track and is one to note ahead of his jumping bow, while well-related Fatal Flaw is returning from a long absence but is more than capable of a good run. Campbell Black was backed off the boards ahead of his debut at Downpatrick and finished well off the winner in third. It will be interesting to see if the same support arrives. Walking In Mayo, who hacked up in a point-to-point in March, is another for a market check.
