FormscanBy Michael Graham - Not a strong contest by any means. Liz Doyle's newcomer Samsud, with Sean Flanagan booked, is worth a market check. Automatic showed ability in a couple of hurdle races last year and will hardly have a better chance to shed his maiden tag. He wasn't beaten far into fifth at Clonmel, and was a fair second in handicap company at Cork in October. He has an official rating of 104 and Rachael Blackmore's assistance. He is far from an automatic choice, though, as he hasn't been out since October and his best form came on ground with cut in it. For a selection I'm siding with Edward O'Grady's RUSSIAN DANCER each way. The going should be ideal for him as he showed ability on decent ground in a couple of bumpers for Luke Comer in 2018. He was last seen finishing mid-division in a big field maiden hurdle on testing ground at Clonmel in January. Several winners have come out of that race, including a couple of horses behind him. Gurtnakisteen was keen in a Kilbeggan bumper, but is at least match fit from that appearance at the end of June. He didn't feature in sixth, but has to rate a threat on hurdling bow if settling better.
