FormscanBy Gary Carson - LESSOFDNEGATIVITY has been in good form this winter and looks capable of striking again here. The Westerner gelding won at Tramore in December and after unseating when still in contention at Limerick subsequently ran well again back at the south-east venue on New Year's Day. He chased home Arctic Ambition last time and despite a 3lb rise looks to have a big shout in this company. Seangoell ran well on his last visit here when third to Bitview Colin and looked like he would appreciate going back up in trip then. Quarry Girl is unexposed over fences and could be a contender on her first outing in handicap company in this sphere. She is rated 5lb lower over the larger obstacles than over hurdles.
