FormscanBy Tom Weekes - FAULTY is consistent and returned from a 364-day layoff when running well last month. Suited by testing ground and this distance, he finished 11 lengths ahead of today's rival Lightkeeper at Punchestown and should confirm placings on the same terms. Tattersalls Sales Bumper winner Icare Desbois ran a fine race at Leopardstown over Christmas but disappointed at Naas in January. He should figure at the business end but carries an 8lb penalty. Clonshire River was a beaten odds-on favourite at Thurles last month (On Your Way finished third) and faces a stiffer task today. Ayiko was well beaten on recent hurdles debut and runs in a first-time tongue-tie.
