FormscanBy Tom Weekes - NOWWHATDOYOUTHINK is progressive and receives 12lb from top-weight Classic Getaway. The selection has notched wins in a point-to-point, bumper, maiden hurdle and beginners chase thus far and ran well to finish second in a similar Grade 3 contest at Thurles last month. In that smart contest, well-supported Jalila Moriviere finished third and Soldier In Milan was a notable fourth. Veteran Classic Getaway is an able performer on his day but was flattered by his proximity to winner Impaire Et Passe in the Red Mills Chase at Gowran in February, as that race was slowly run. Dublin National-winner Promontory has a little to find on ratings while Broomfield Bijou is declared for Sunday and would again be chasing blacktype if lining out here.
