FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - SMITHSCORNER won the corresponding event in 2018. The Kadeed gelding was market-leader to exploit a favourable hurdles mark at the Harvest festival in Listowel, but he came up short when fourth behind Whereyounow. Conor Orr’s five pound claim here is a boon to the chances of the County Cork trained contender, and he can get it done back at a venue where he’s proven in the past. First time in a handicap hurdle Elite Tropper Grey is entitled to be there or thereabouts, whilst there are few others with each-way claims as well.
