Formscan By John O'Riordan - CODED WELDER looks to have been found a nice opportunity to record a first career win. The Paul Mulligan-trained gelding has shaped with plenty of promise in reaching the frame on all three starts over hurdles to date. Runner-up at Tipperary on his penultimate outing, that form received a major boost when the winner followed up in a stronger contest at Galway last month. In receipt of weight from the previous winners, the six-year-old stands out. Bumper scorer William Butler has yet to strike over jumps but has been running well enough to suggest he can win his maiden. Cut The Rope is interesting on his debut for a new yard.
