FormscanBy Mark Nunan - BALLAGH STAR won this last year off the same rating and comes here on the back of two solid placed efforts. He had a hard race in testing conditions when second at Ballinrobe but, if that hasn't left a mark, looks the one to beat and the ground should be better here. Top-weight Broken Ice likes this track and has been running well over hurdles. He can contend on his first chase start since April. He Fitz In was in front when a last-fence faller in the corresponding contest two years ago and should be fitter for his run at Galway while Seventy Eight Team, second on handicap debut at Wexford, is another for the shortlist. %0A%0A
