Formscan By Michael Graham - BILLY LEE SWAGGER ran a stormer when a close fourth in a massive field in the Albert Bartlett Series Final Handicap Hurdle at the Punchestown Festival. Provided this race doesn't come too soon for him, he should be heavily involved off 3lb higher. Cafe Con Leche kept on well for second at Cork in March which brings him right into contention. Howdoyalikeherhome won over further in Down Royal and will appeal to many, up in class, after a 4lb rise in the weights. Top-weight Lucky Zebo has been out of form, but could enjoy this company particularly off a mark of 129.
