FormscanBy Dan McEvoy - The 118 rated SON OF ANARCHY gains marginal preference here due to his experience over obstacles. Gordon Elliot’s charge won a maiden point by 15 lengths before running an encouraging race when fourth in a Punchestown maiden behind The Big Westerner on hurdle debut. However, he’s been disappointing since then, but his recent second inspired more confidence and he can break his duck at the sixth attempt here. Bumper winners Oneinthewell and Moon Eclipse have similar profiles, as after winning at Leopardstown on debut, neither figured in listed company on their next start. The former has a great amount of potential based on his debut when beating subsequent winner Eternal Echo. The latter showed real promise amidst greenness on debut when coming from the rear to win on debut, but she hasn’t really progressed as perhaps expected and her recent hurdle debut portrayed minor encouragement. Cocovic took his form to a new level on his last start and may improve once more with the hood going back on.
