Formscan By Mark Nunan - HOW’S ELLIE (11) stepped up markedly from her hurdling debut when chasing home an odds-on chance here last month, and the third-placed horse looked likely to finish a creditable second when falling at the last at Kilbeggan on Saturday. Having tried to make all last time, the selection will probably go to the front again here and will be hard to peg back. A four-time winner on the Flat and currently rated 81 in that code, the well-bred Crystal Mariner was bought for 29,000 guineas last month and starts out over jumps here. It will be hard for him to give 15lb to the selection. Now fitted with headgear, Texas Red was fourth at Kilbeggan last month and the second won easily at that track two days ago. %0A
