Formscan By Gary Carson - DYLAN ROSS was run out of it late on at Naas last time in a better looking contest, won by Jenari, and should get his head in front now. He showed no ill affects, having crashed out on his debut at Roscommon, when running a cracker last time in a hot looking beginners chase. He had some smart sorts in behind then, including Mount Benbulben, and looks to have a lot less on his plate now. Lord Windermere showed smart form over timber last season but always looked the type to do better over fences and looks the obvious threat to the selection. Toon River has to overcome a 12 month absence but ran a cracker at Thurles when last seen and if he's fit for his return could sneak a place.
