FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Runner-up here over fences last month, INTHENICKOFTIME can exploit a lower rating back over hurdles. A winner at Wexford last August, the Enda Bolger-trained five-year-old has shaped with plenty of promise on three starts over the larger obstacles. Connections clearly feel that the gelding has some unfinished business in this discipline and, he appears to have been found an ideal opportunity to record the second win of his career. Killarney chase winner Smallcraftwarning also has to be of interest back over hurdles. Twice successful over flights, the eight-year-old is lightly raced for trainer John Ryan. Recent scorers Adaliz and Mister Vic are both worthy of consideration for respective connections.
