Formscan By Eamonn Murphy - If the eight of these go to post, SCHOLARS MATE would be an attractive each-way proposition. Winner of a good handicap hurdle at Down Royal three years ago off 116, he begins life in this sphere off 105. With Harley Dunne booked to claim 7Ib, the Shernazar gelding will have the 'postage-stamp' of nine stone six on his back. Other pluses are the fact that Scholars Mate's trainer, Dot Love has her team in good form and it's also entirely possible that the eleven-year-old, previously with Colm Murphy and Willie Mullins, will come on a bit for the addition of cheek-pieces. None of these would exactly cause a shock were they to come home in front with course winners Dancing Tornado, Ponmeoath and Doctor Woodfield, in particular, noted.
