Formscan By Michael Graham - EARLY DOORS took the notable scalp of a prolific winner when successful in an Oldtown point-to-point and looks the one to beat in this hunters chase. He was runner-up on the 'track' at Listowel last June and was well clear of the remainder. Big Interest is up-and-coming in this discipline and there was plenty to like about how he posted an easy success at Down Royal over Christmas. He found life tougher when fourth in Naas, but another big run looks on the cards. My Best Valentine has been enjoying herself in point-to-points to earn a shot at this company, while Dorking Cock shouldn't be ruled out.
