FormscanBy Tom Weekes - ELLAAT won a recent claimer and should again compete in this winnable handicap. An eight-time winner with an ability to handle all terrains, the selection benefited from January’s course reappearance run when scoring subsequently at Clonmel and a reproduction, for a new team, would give him every chance. Falcon Park also debuts for new connections and ran well on Thyestes Day in January. He races from a career-high rating but softening ground will suit. The Nagger Reidy weakened late-on at Fairyhouse last month but can compete on best form. Jerrari, who has a top pedigree and is out of a half-sister to Champion Hurdle winner Jezki, races for new owners on handicap debut.
