FormscanBy Gary Carson - HITAK ran much better on his third attempt over fences when placed at Listowel and this looks like a nice race for him now. The ‘Shark’ Hanlon-trained gelding ran a big race then, leading three from home and giving way before the last, when third to Mossy Fen Park. A similar effort may be enough. Union Station was a touch disappointing on his final start last season, in testing conditions, but could be a big player on his return. He had been runner-up on two starts previously and on that form he’s entitled to go close. Kish Bank is another to note on his chase debut. The Gigginstown gelding was a former point-to-point winner and could improve for a fence.%0A%0A
