FormscanBy Alan Magee - RAGNAR LODBROK competing in top bumper company on both outings last winter and looks a useful recruit to hurdles. The Fame And Glory gelding was in the money in races won by Eric Bloodaxe and Appreciate It at Fairyhouse and Leopardstown respectively and will not be meeting anything of that calibre here. The Broghie Man was a useful sprinter on the Flat with a career high rating of 106. Not surprisingly he finds it hard to see out two miles over hurdles and this 2m3f test should prove too much. Thurles bumper winner Rosgalme hails from a yard in decent form, while Kilgorey and Optum are others to consider.
