FormscanBy Tom Weekes - BYTHESAMETOKEN has won just once in 10 chases but ran well on his recent return to chasing and likes soft ground. A three-time hurdle winner, his recent form is strong and while he has top weight, drops in grade from a useful Listowel run. Lightly-raced veteran Whatsafellatodo has overcome 271-day, 927 and 366-day absences in his career and ran well on soft at the Galway festival. However his best form is on good ground although is suited by this distance. Jack Holiday's form is also on reasonable ground but also ran well on soft over today's course and distance in August, with today's rider claiming 5lb. Ricky Langford and stablemate Ardamir both have recent form but would prefer a sound surface. Marvel Fan has a lower chaser rating but has been well held recently. Filon D'oudairies blundered at Listowel but had previously shown good form at winter venue Thurles.%0A
