Formscan By Dan McEvoy - Dual point-to-point winner BOLD FURY should be capable of opening his account at the sixth time of asking under rules. He ran a very encouraging race on his first start over hurdles when headed after the last to go down by a length and three quarters. Although that form has taken a knock since, Stuart Crawford charge should have enough here under regular rider Thomas Kileff. Edward Buckley’s recent recruit, Migdam should improve from his hurdle debut when 5th around Bellewstown. The Zelzal gelding made smooth progress after the second last and was staying on to be closest at the finish. Cosmos d’Ainay will have to leave behind his first start over hurdles if he’s to figure here, but he shouldn’t be discounted coming from Gordon Elliott’s yard.
A hurdle for four years old and upwards, maidens at starting
Weights - 4-y-o 11st 9lbs 5-y-o and up 11st 12lbs Mares allowed 7lbs
