FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Course and distance winner CASTLE FIELD BOY can continue on his upward curve by adding a third career success. Patrick Foley's lightly raced seven-year-old has proved hugely consistent since finishing third in a maiden hurdle at this venue in February. Improving as he has stepped up in trip, the Scorpion gelding has more scope than any of his rivals. Angels Dawn is obviously very well treated over hurdles but may just need this reappearance run. However, depending on how forward the Sam Curling-trained mare is, she could be involved. The betting market should provide the best guide as to her chances. Whatsavailable, runner-up on both previous starts at this track, won't be far away for local trainer Mouse Morris.
