FormscanBy Michael Graham - ENERGUMENE is very hard to get way from particularly on official ratings. He is rated 19lb higher than Master McShee and the pair race off level weights. On his last two starts, Energumene landed the Queen Mother Champion Chase at Cheltenham and the Champion Steeplechase at Punchestown in decisive fashion. He has won off a break before and is a chaser of the highest calibre. Master McShee is a credit to Paddy Corkery. He won a Grade 1 novice chase at Limerick last Christmas and keeps turning up in the big races. He has come home runner-up in his last three outings and could be set for more place money. Epson Du Houx is closely matched with Master McShee at the weights. He has an absence of more than a year to overcome, but was in winning form when last seen in a handicap chase over CD.
A steeplechase for five years old and upwards
