FormscanBy Mark Nunan - John McConnell has been doing well with his point-to-point recruits and THE GREY MONTY will be expected to show up well here after costing 95,000 pounds following a win at Dromahane in December. A tongue-tie is fitted for the Rules debut of the Montmartre half-brother to a winning hurdler. Call Her Now was even more expensive after beating a useful type in a point-to-point at Necarne last year. She is now fitted with a hood after finishing third on hurdling debut at Cork last month. Scenic Look had a good run on the Flat at the Curragh on Wednesday and has the rating to go close while The Gradual Slope wasn’t beaten far when fourth at Killarney and has place claims.
