FormscanBy Michael Graham - FLAME BEARER appeals over this trip. He made his chasing debut over further in Naas before Christmas and was beaten into third at odds on. That was his seasonal reappearance and he got tired, so he is entitled to come on for the run. This is the sort of trip he was winning at over hurdles, though, and it worth noting that he is two from two at this track, including in a Grade 2 novice hurdle last season. He holds Grade 1 entries at the Dublin Racing Festival in Leopardstown. This is his second start for Willie Mullins. Highland Charge is a real mudlark and these conditions should suit him well. He probably ran as well as could be expected in a distant third behind the market principals on chasing debut at this track last month. He won at Grade 3 level over flights and should have a future in this game. Slip Of The Tongue blotted his copybook by falling at Leopardstown. His fourth in a hot beginners' chase on penultimate start in Navan wasn't a bad effort.
