FormscanBy Donal Murphy - First reserve Dangan Des Champs would be of definite interest if getting a run. Successful over fences at Sligo earlier this month, she would carry just 10-3 here with Michael O'Sullivan claiming a valuable 7lb. DICEBOX on the other hand must contend with top weight. He had a far from straightforward passage at Down Royal on his most recent start but still managed to prevail, beating subsequent winner Lily Light Foot into second. Only a five-year-old and fitted with cheekpieces for the first time, the selection looks open to further improvement. The Joseph O'Brien-trained Cast Iron catches the eye off a mark of 86. With the wealth of talent on Owning Hill, it's perhaps significant that connections are persisting with this Midnight Legend six-year-old. Off the track for nearly a year, she was a solid third at Gowran when last seen. Lucailem disappointed when sent off favourite on soft ground at Roscommon last month and back on a sound surface now, a much-improved performance looks likely. In truth, a strong case can be made for many others in this competitive affair, with Falcon Park, Rule Of June and Presenting Point all leading hopes.
An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards rated 80-102
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.
