FormscanBy Gary Carson - LARGY DEBUT looks the one to beat here. The Shirocco gelding has been placed in his four outings over fences and this is his easiest task to date. He was no match for Sir Gerhard at Gowran when last seen in January and had also been placed behind Mighty Potter earlier in the campaign on his chase debut. Aione was weakening when falling in the Leinster National at Naas last time but has some solid form over fences, with a mark of 126, and could be a player back in beginners company. Where It All Began ran a solid race when chasing home Mercury Lane at Wexford last month but probably has a bit to find with the aforementioned pair on that form.
