FormscanBy Alan Magee - DEWCUP has shown a liking for this venue and may open his account over fences. The Ted Walsh-trained gelding won a bumper here and also gained both hurdle wins at his local track. The six-year-old was far from disgraced in the Cesarewitch at the Curragh before making a pleasing start over fences also at this venue. The selection had Torygraph, a useful staying novice over hurdles last term, back in third when runner-up to hot-favourite French Dynamite a fortnight ago and this slightly longer distance should hold no fears. Max Flamingo came home well when third to Gabynako over this trip at Fairyhouse, while Holymacapony and Floueur are others to consider.
