FormscanBy John O'Riordan - FOLLOW THE CROWD can go one place better here having filled the runner-up position on his last two starts. The JP McManus owned gelding looked all over a winner at Downpatrick last time before being caught close home. The lightly raced son of Jeremy is open to any amount of improvement over fences and could well run up a sequence. I'm Not Alone won a course and distance handicap in the McManus silks in 2020 but is now in the ownership of Audrey O'Dwyer. The mare shaped really well when third over hurdles at Punchestown recently and could be peaking at the right time. Whisper In Court and Three Loud Knocks should also be considered as both ran big races last time.
