FormscanBy Tom Weekes - TANGENTAL sprang a 50/1 surprise to win at Fairyhouse recently and might follow up here. TANGENTAL showed nothing in his five maiden hurdle runs but returned following a 108 days break to win at Fairyhouse and while the form is nothing special, he remains open to plenty more progression being a 5yo and today's 6lbs rise of more than offset by his rider's 7lbs claim today. Robbie Burns' Mister Butler is a capable type at this grade and while his last win was in July 2019, he has been running well recently and has obvious claims, although dropping back in trip today isn't ideal. Ask David's latest win was in February 2019 but is also proven at this grade and while his last run was in December, he seems ground and trip-versatile. Get Home's form can be a little in-and-out but has her chance on best form.
