FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Fairyhouse runner-up DIVILABOTHER has strong claims of gaining a first career victory. The form of that latter race worked out well subsequently, with the winner and third placed horse going close in a stronger contest. Having finished second over this course and distance last summer, the Thomas Coyle-trained gelding has already shown that he can act around this tight track. The Striker Dylan shaped as though he was ready to win a race when staying on to take minor honours at Killarney in October. Off the track since, Liam Cusack's gelding has every chance if ready after a break. Locally trained six-year-old Evans Secret is sure to have been prepared with one eye on this particular meeting.
