Formscan By Gary Carson - HASHTAG PRETENDER can gain a deserved success here. The Great Pretender gelding has been runner-up five times, from seven runs, and has bumped into some useful sorts. He chased home Where's My Jet at Killarney last time and that mare won a decent novice contest at Listowel last weekend. The Mediator is another who has been knocking on the door and looks like the obvious danger. He has been a bit frustrating since winning a bumper impressively on debut. Locked Box was well backed to win a bumper at Bellewstown in late August. He has jumps experience from point-to-points and is another to consider.
