FormscanBy Tom Weekes - MAGIC SADLER is a nine-time point-to-point winner who has good recent form. He has contested just four previous hunter chases, finishing second twice and also unseating rider at Thurles in January but being a dependable performer, should take all the beating. Cause For Comment has finished second in both his hunter chase appearances and while he won a recent maiden point-to-point, lacks the selection’s street-smarts. West Of Idaho steps up in grade having won twice ‘between the flags’ recently while Yewtree Hill has won four point-to-points.
