FormscanBy Gary Carson - KILLINURE LASS won twice here last year for Philip Dempsey and may be able to strike again on her return to action for her in-form trainer. The Morozov mare will appreciate any drying of the ground and looks on a competitive mark off 108 over fences. Tullyveery Lad is another dual course winner that has to be respected. He also makes his seasonal debut and was third behind the selection, over hurdles, when last seen here in October. The bottom-weight Casey West ran well to finish third at Limerick last month. He is race-fit and is another to consider.
