Going - Soft, Yielding to Soft in places (Hurdle); Soft (Chase). Fine

Formscan By Michael Graham - GUST OF WIND has been pitched into a couple of Grade 1 contests in addition to a Grade 2 in Ireland and should appreciate this starting point on his way to further top-level contests. His best finish was third in a Grade 2 over course and distance in April and, interestingly, Willie Mullins has commented that he thinks he will be a Grade 1 horse during his career. His stablemate, Risk Belle, brings strong form to the contest as she was a close third in the Boodles at the Cheltenham Festival and delivered in a Grade A handicap hurdle at this track in April. Nusret is match fit from the Flat and is a Grade 2 winner over flights. The concession of more than half a stone to all his rivals is a tough task, though. Golden Joy won his sole race over flights in his native France and was widely expected to win on his Irish debut at Naas, but finished third. He is likely to improve upon that effort.
