FormscanBy Donal Murphy - TREASURE MEMORY ran a huge race when second on his hurdles debut at Galway in October and had some useful types behind. A point-to-point recruit, he since finished third in a bumper at Punchestown and was less than two-lengths off Boycetown, who impressed at Down Royal on St Stephen's Day. The form of the Plumpton bumper that Emerald Poet won in April has worked out well, with no less than five of the six who finished behind him there winning since. Starting off over flights now, the Eleanor Manning homebred will be well-fancied to make it two from two. While a beaten favourite on his last two starts, Spinningayarn is the other obvious contender. The winner of a point-to-point and bumper, it'll come as a surprise if he's not involved towards the business end.
A hurdle for four years old and upwards, maidens at startingWeights - 4-y-o 10st 11lbs 5-y-o and up 11st 12lbs. Mares allowed 7lbs.
