Going - Heavy, Soft To Heavy In Places. Overcast

Formscan By Tom Weekes - POORMANS HILL almost picks himself here given he is now a proven performer in staying chases and reverts to hurdles here from a favourable mark. He comes here fit and well, dropping down in grade, is proven over this trip and on testing ground and is officially rated 22lbs lower over hurdles than fences. His useful rider also claims 4lbs. Battling Spirit's rider also claims 4lbs and while he has raced just 10 times as an 11yo, should be able to get involved for the placings, despite a 9lbs rise for winning well at Clonmel in December. Allez Kal won well at this trip at Limerick over Christmas but was beaten since from today's mark while Itsallhappening hinted early in his career that he may be a well handicapped type but is now looking exposed. Capture The Drama, a seven-time winner, was well held over CD latest but has claims if reproducing his best form.
