FormscanBy Tom Weekes - SUMMER TIDE was a surprise winner on seasonal reappearance last month and indeed reverts to a more favourable distance. He was rated just 111 over hurdles but his chase form is quite useful, being beaten by subsequent Kerry National winner Desertmore House last July and, at Cork last month, dfeated a previous Grade 2 winner into second. So Des Flos defeated the recent Scottish National-fourth to win at Fairyhouse last month and while he would ideally prefer a slightly longer distance, has claims despite conceding weight. Music Of Tara was well beaten when brought down at Leopardstown in February and while she had previously shown good form and has point-to-point experience, faces a tough task on chase debut. Dual hurdle winner Nine Graces is rated 128 in that sphere but was also well held in that Leopardstown race and makes her own chase debut. Varna Gold returned from 640 days off at Cork last month and has plenty on his plate – also on chase debut.
