FormscanBy Alan Magee - WESTERN RUN won twice over hurdles around this time last year and probably boasts the best piece of form over fences here by virtue of his neck second at the Galway Festival. The Gavin Cromwell-trained gelding divided Streets Of Doyen and Bleu Berry (won since at Listowel) on that occasion and hopefully is none the worse of the mistake when unseating his rider at Killarney last time. Fully Charged was let down by some jumping errors over fences last term but merits respect if they can be ironed out while Noble Yeats, wide margin winner of a Thurles bumper and Navan maiden hurdle last season, is an exciting recruit to fences. Definite Plan returned from a lengthy lay-off to fill the runner-up spot three times this year including behind Friary Rock over this trip at Wexford.
