FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - At this venue a fortnight back there was a cracking three-way finish to an 80 to 102 handicap hurdle with Hilltop Supreme narrowly coming out on top from ADDED BONUS and Crack On Corrie. A steward’s enquiry was called in the aftermath but it was no surprise when the judge’s placings were confirmed. Added Bonus, up three pounds for that meritorious effort, is back to two miles now, and that looks like it will suit well. The top-weight is by Jeremy, like Cheltenham winners Appreciate It, Black Tears, Sir Gerhard and Belfast Banter. The Festival’s leading rider Rachael Blackmore takes the reins on Added Bonus for the first time, and despite his twelve stone impost John Joe Walsh’s charge ought to take a deal of beating.
