FormscanBy Alan Magee - PROPHET’S CORNER won four times between the flags and now tackles handicap company for the first time after showing promise when placed in all three maiden hurdle starts. The Westerner gelding likes to force the pace and was only headed approaching the last when third to the odds-on Argento Boy over a slightly longer trip here last time. Must Go Now had Portnacoo (now 14lb better off) nearly nine lengths behind when successful over 2m4f at Fairyhouse on New Year’s Day. Portnacoo completed a hat-trick when trained by his veteran owner Harry Smyth last year and has won over 2m6f, while Duffys Hodey has won three of his last four starts but has gone up 26lb as a result.
