FormscanBy Gary Carson - LISTENHERETOMEJACK met some traffic problems before staying on to finish fourth at Cork last month and there looks another race in him. The Eoin Doyle-trained gelding has run a couple of solid races now since winning at Thurles last November and despite a 2lb rise for his latest effort he can strike again. Seangoell is another who comes here in fine form and looks an obvious threat. The Gold Well mare was no match for That's Lifebuoy at Limerick last time having won there previously. Dropping back in trip would be a slight concern for her. Big Debates is interesting off a 6lb lower mark back over timber and the market could prove the best guide to his chances.
