FormscanBy Tom Weekes - In-form JOSHUA WEBB is well suited by this distance and soft ground and might get his turn. He has been frustrating having won just twice from 20 runs but has bumped into capable types, including Meetingofthewaters last November and most recently, behind the subsequent Leinster National winner at Clonmel last month. Neveradullmoment won his previous hurdle race at the Galway festival last year and while he might appear nicely handicapped over fences, has been disappointing and might prefer slightly better ground. Bleu D'enfer steps up from a recent Ayr maiden hurdle win but had run ok over fences here in January. Jack Kennedy rides St Denis's Well which was well held at Leopardstown recently but was previously a course-and-distance winner. So Des Flos would prefer further while lightly-raced ten-year-old Donacheady Gale ran well on reappearance at Thurles recently.
