FormscanBy Gary Carson - JAY PEE M may have benefitted from a recent outing over timber and looks to have a big shout here. The Valirann gelding won twice over fences last year and it was a solid run on his return at Thurles in late January. He was a touch keen early on then and the run should help with that. West Of Carrig has been running consistently well this season and looks like an obvious danger. The Westerner gelding may appreciate stepping back up in trip now after finishing third over two-miles-two at Thurles last time. Hello Jack was third behind West Of Carrig at Fairyhouse in mid-January and may be able to get a bit closer now in first time cheekpieces.%0A%0A
