FormscanBy Mark Nunan - The locally-trained ACLASS has made the frame in a couple of handicap chases and can put that experience to good use. He handles testing ground and three miles may just have stretched his stamina when he was third on his most recent run over fences at Fairyhouse. This distance should suit better and he ran well over hurdles here last season. The selection may have needed the run when beaten by Jerisk Star over hurdles at Gowran, but that rival ran well for a long way until falling on chase debut at the same track and looks a big player. Gavin Cromwell has won the last two renewals of this, so point-to-point runner-up Lecale’s Diamond can’t be discounted. %0A
