FormscanBy Michael Graham - NUTTORRIDGE made up plenty of ground in the latter stages over a similar trip at this track in June to finish fourth. He enjoys the undulations in Downpatrick having won over hurdles and fences at this venue. His trainer, Mark McNiff, is beginning to hit form with two winners in the last week. Winnie Woodnutt was a ready winner when last seen over hurdles at Kilbeggan in April. She has been performing very consistently for some time now. Ceanndana has been placed in three of his last six hurdle races which gives him a shot. Cool Croi and Silverstrand represent powerful stables and will be eyeing a cheque.
