FormscanBy Alan Magee - COSTACURTA easily won a Kilbeggan maiden hurdle last year and was also placed on a couple of occasions including at this venue. The Milan gelding showed a tendency to jump left when switched to fences on his reappearance at Tramore last month and should be better suited by this track. Point-to-point winner Chichester Park had both Howdoyalikeherhome and Londonofficecallin well behind when runner-up on his chasing debut at Kilbeggan last month, although the latter has since put up a much-improved effort when beating all bar Le Coq Hardi at the same venue. Maxi Mac Gold and Garnacho are others to consider.
