FormscanBy Alan Magee - WOODFORD ISLAND gets the nod. The son of Trans Island has generally been in decent form this season and has been switched back to hurdling having won a Fairyhouse beginners chase back in November. He shaped well twice over this trip at Leopardstown but needs to bounce back after a slightly disappointing effort at Punchestown. This probably represents a drop in class. Westerner Point has proved a real star over fences this term for connections winning three times including the valuable Tim Duggan Handicap at the Limerick Christmas meeting. However he’s not the same force over hurdles and failed to take advantage of his lowly mark inbetween those victories at Thurles. Eamonn O’Connell’s yard is in good form at present and Captainofthefleet is dropping down to an attractive rating. He won this race two years ago off a 6lb higher mark, and was noted staying on nicely over a shorter trip at Naas last time. Rue Hill appears best fresh and a third run in just over a month represents a glut in his very lightly-raced profile.
