FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - If Henry de Bromhead thinks CAPTAIN GUINNESS is ready for this Grade Two test on his second start, that’ll do for me, and Rachael Blackmore’s mount is the tentative pick. You just had to be struck by the manner of his success at Navan in the middle of last month. Though this is a test of a different type altogether, and going the other way around on a less testing track as well, the fact that he’s here at all could be telling. Apart from last flight faller, Blackbow, that mightn’t have looked a maiden of any great consequence at Navan, but subsequent events have shown it could be worth following. Looking at the early betting, Andy Dufresne is expected to get back on track after his first defeat last time. Having seen him win his point-to-point at Borris House, I’ve been a follower from the start. Dropping in trip could help, and it won’t be any huge surprise if he stamps his undoubted class on proceedings. Due to the going Anything Will Do missed out on an engagement in the Grade One Lawlor’s Of Naas Novice Hurdle last Sunday. Joseph O’Brien, trainer of that fellow, has a nice second contender in Meticulous too. This is no easy hurdling introduction though.
