Going - Good to Soft. 
View all races Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - Kopek Des Bordes marked himself down as a novice hurdler to be reckoned with when bolting up over 2m in a Leopardstown Grade 1 last month, and he must be respected bidding to get favourite backers off to a flyer. That said, this doesn't look like the penalty kick that his forecast odds would suggest and WILLIAM MUNNY is narrowly preferred. The seven-year-old finished runner-up on his first two starts over hurdles, when not perfect in the jumping department, but he put in a much more professional round en route to hacking up in a Listed hurdle over 2m at Punchestown most recently. With the promise of more to come from this progressive sort, he gets the nod. Workahead, who had the selection in second when scoring last time out, also enters calculations, along with Romeo Coolio.
