FormscanBy Dan McEvoy - A chance is taken here on VINTAGE GOLD who gained his only success over course and distance off 1lb lower. John Murphy, who loves to target this meeting, acquires the services of in form conditional Eoin Staples for the mount. Blinkers are also put back on and this son of Highland Reel can have a say large say if reproducing some of his best form. Give Him A Chance would also have to come into the reckoning after his comfortable success in Kilbeggan, but he now must contend with a 10lb rise. Corkbeg took a step back in the right direction when 4th on his last start and he now sneaks in at the bottom of the weights 4lbs below his last winning mark. Doctor Confusion is of interest with a first-time tongue tie now in handicaps and General Clermont looks to expose a 12lb lower hurdle mark.
