Formscan  - GAELIC ROVER has a likeable pedigree and his two previous starts over hurdles were highly encouraging. Those efforts suggest he has banished the memory of a couple of falls in point-to-points and further progression could see the son of Walk In The Park get off the mark here. Who's Glen commands respect, cutting back in trip after a promising hurdles over 2m4f at Musselburgh. However, a bigger danger could be the Haydock bumper winner, So Proud, who could be anything now he tackles obstacles for the first time.
