Formscan By Alan Magee - ICARE DESBOIS beat better fancied stablemate Lecky Watson in a Fairyhouse bumper and was absent for 19 months before disappointing when switched to hurdles here in November. He was found to be coughing post-race and is much better judged on a subsequent third to King Of Kingsfield in a hot maiden hurdle at Leopardstown over Christmas. The runner-up Mirazur West won easily at Fairyhouse on Wednesday. Butcher Hollow and Cleatus Poolaw have filled second spot behind useful sorts on both hurdle starts and rate obvious threats, while Nas Na Riogh also bids to go one better after beating all bar the selection’s stable companion Dancing City over 2m4f at Navan.
