FormscanBy Alan Magee - The father and son team of Paul and Jack Gilligan went close with HENRY SELLERS at Limerick last week and may gain quick compensation here. The five-year-old gelding belied odds of 33/1 when tackling handicap company for the first time last Monday beating all bar Hello Pilgrim, and is entitled to go off a much shorter price on this occasion. Global Fert has run for a number of different yards but was a shade disappointing considering the very strong support at Roscoomon last week. Gavin Cromwell was among the winners at Kilbeggan on Monday and has a strong hand here with riding arrangements suggesting Captain Courageous may prove the pick of his trio. Colin Bowe has his team in great form since the resumption of jump racing and any market move for the former Dan Skelton-trained Bourbon Borderline would be significant.
