FormscanBy Tom Weekes - Lightly-weighted ONETHREEFIVENOTOUT was stoked back to life by his new trainer recently and might be able to build on that. While he had shown ability in the UK, his form was also a little in-and-out but ran nicely at Down Royal and he is suited by today’s easier ground conditions. Better Times Ahead is a soft-ground stayer who chased home subsequent Scottish National-winner Macdermott here in April 2024. He recently scored over hurdles at today’s course and he reverts to fences competing for an in-form yard. Lonesome Boatman made all to win the Cork National recently and while now 9lb higher, has proven staying ability for this distance and should again compete.
