Formscan By Tom Weekes - BARNACULLIA is race-fit, ground-versatile and reverts from fences rated 17lb lower in this sphere. Progressive, he ran well in a useful Listowel chase last month and while well enough held on his previous hurdles run in January, remains a little unexposed from his mark. El Champo is also progressive and while he won here recently, steps up to a stronger handicap rated 7lb higher and with his rider claiming 2lb less. Canal End looks much better than his 123 rating but is probably best watched on reappearance, as he would also prefer a longer distance. Maidenstreetprince was no match for Gaelic Warrior in January and reappears after a long layoff while stablemate and owner-ridden Cafe Con Leche has been running recent claimers. Ted Hastings would prefer good ground while Hey Johnny was well held on his latest runs and makes his seasonal reappearance. Ladybank dead-heated with Princess Zoe in January and debuts in handicaps, dropping down in grade. Contrapposto ended a six-year wait when winning at the Cheltenham November festival and is best watched on testing ground.
