FormscanBy Tom Weekes - MAHON'S WAY was a 360,000 pounds purchase following last November's point-to-point win and ran well on bumper debut in March. He was pushed-out to win on debut for trainer Denis Hogan at Lisronagh and subsequently ran well behind a high-class winner at Naas, with the other principal beaten horses possessing ability. Stepping up in distance could also suit. Chosen Witness is a big galloper and while outclassed in graded bumpers last term, ran well enough behind another high-class winner at Punchestown and should also be suited by this distance. Ataboycharlie showed promise on Galway debut and while he contests a stronger maiden, can progress. Spread Boss Ted had good bumper form is 2022 but is best watched on reappearance following 469 days off. Experienced Clodders Dream needs to improve to win. Chigorin ran well on debut for Pat Doyle at Knockanard but is stable second-string while All For Rachel runs in a first-time tongue-tie.
