Formscan By Donal Murphy - INCHIDALY COPPER might be able to exploit a much lower hurdles mark. Rated 21lbs higher over fences, the Doyen nine-year-old has been disappointing in recent starts. However, he might enjoy returning to a track where he has won before and with Andy Burke-Ott back in the saddle, it'll be disappointing if he's not involved towards the business end. Belatedly making the breakthrough at Cork last week, The Border Boy went up just 5lb and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to follow-up. Third in that Cork heat, Thats All warrants the utmost respect, while others for the shortlist in this competitive affair are top-weight General Clermont, Glendine Billy (first time cheekpieces) and the locally-trained Newport.
An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards rated 0-100
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.
