FormscanBy Michael Graham - ITS ON THE LINE could overturn Down Royal form with Big Interest on this slower ground. Its On The Line was beaten almost five lengths into second by Big Interest on better ground in the north, but is entitled to come on from that run which was his first for almost eight months. Last season, he won this race in addition to prestigious hunters chases in Aintree and Punchestown. Big Interest is the younger pretender who is in good hands with Davy Christie, a renowned specialist in this discipline. There ought to be plenty more to come from him as he is very much unexposed. Arverne could get involved at a price and similar sentiments apply to Annamix.
