FormscanBy John O'Riordan - A faller at the last when still in front at Listowel last time, KINGS JET(3) can gain compensation. While he still had work to do on that occasion as the final two fences were omitted, the Cormac Farrell-trained gelding was travelling well at the head of affairs and looked sure to play a part in the finish. Provided that his confidence hasn't been affected by that fall, the six-year-old should be able to make amends. Shock Killarney winner Woodstream Lad has to be respected. Raised 8lb as a result, the David O'Sullivan-trained gelding is a previous winner at this track. Galway runner-up Prince Palace was no match for the winner on that occasion but should be competitive once again.
