Formscan - REVEREND HUBERT has done well since joining the Charles Byrnes stable and the form of his recent third at Listowel stands out, with the winner going in again subsequently at Listed level. The five-year-old looks set to relish the step up to three miles, while the same may be said of the Punchestown winner Antrim Coast. Improvement is required from Lisnamult Lad if he is to get involved after easy victories in weak contests at Ludlow and Hexham. An impressive winner at Southwell last time out, Butch cannot be ruled out either.
