Formscan By John O'Riordan - It could pay to give the Willie Mullins-trained YORADREAMER another chance. Runner-up at Ballinrobe on his penultimate start, the six-year-old had his excuses when a well-beaten fifth back at that same venue last time. A lightly-raced gelding with scope for improvement over hurdles, the son of Yorgunnabelucky can record a first career win here. Flat placed Young Churchill has shaped well enough on three runs over flights to suggest he should be capable of winning a race or two. At these weights, the Noel Meade-trained four-year-old has every chance. Having improved with each outing to date, Penny Express looks certain to play a leading part under Kevin Sexton.
