FormscanBy Michael Graham - JAMES'S GATE brings very strong form to the contest. The Shantou gelding was an eight-length winner on debut at this track in February. He then stayed on in third in the Grade 1 Champion Bumper at the Cheltenham Festival behind the big guns of Facile Vega and American Mike which was a more than decent performance. Muredach Kelly looks to have a good horse on his hands in Sir Jimmy Mac who ran away with a Downpatrick bumper by a whopping 24 lengths. The horse in third has subsequently won a maiden hurdle in Cork to add substance to the form. Jockey Declan Lavery rode the winner of the Goffs Land Rover Bumper at the festival on Tuesday. James's Gate's stablemate, Sir Argus, should have a role to play at the finish under Jody Townend who has been in good form for Willie Mullins. Tag Man could improve for better ground.
