FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Course specialist STEALTHY TOM has every chance of registering a fourth career win at this venue. The Enda Bolger trained gelding arrives here at the top of his game, having won the Connacht National in June before finishing runner-up in the Midlands equivalent last month. The eight-year-old seems to come alive at this track more than any other, having won three and being brought down on his only other start here. Lifetime Ambition has his sights lowered somewhat, having run in the Aintree Grand National and Galway Plate on his two most recent outings. The Jessica Harrington trained gelding has the valuable assistance of Conor Smithers 7lb claim on this occasion. The Little Yank was runner-up over shorter at this track last month but has won at this trip so also rates a live contender.
