FormscanBy Tom Weekes - CAPODANNO is fitted with a first-time tongue-tie following last month's course defeat and might get off the mark here. He finished second on his only French start at Compiegne in November 2019 and while he was beaten as 6/4 favourite here in December, that was his first run for 398 days and he didn't disgrace, with a dual bumper winner finishing second. Point-to-point winner Dunboyne chased home top class novice Bob Olinger on his hurdles debut at Navan in December and while he is appears fairly capable, might struggle to beat the selection. Wasdale Park ran well on testing ground at Limerick in December and has solid place claims while Quirt Evans and Drop Him In have each shown useful ability but might struggle to win.
