Formscan By Mark Nunan - Winner of the Fred Winter in 2024, LARK IN THE MORNIN (1) is also useful on the Flat and made all in this last year before going on to win again at the Listowel festival. The Soldier Hollow gelding didn't appear over jumps during the winter and should come from on his reappearance at the Curragh in May. By the same stallion as the selection, Weston was third in last year's renewal and is better off at the weights, but he's yet to win in either code since moving to Ireland from Germany three years ago. The Mediator has been running well in similar contests, but is likely to have to settle for minor honours again.%A0
