Formscan By Mark Nunan - Glen Kiln will do for many here after his unfortunate defeat at Tipperary but drying ground is a concern and it might just be worth opposing him. He was set to win a Grade 3 then only to depart at the last and his new mark leaves him well in at the weights but it's a quick enough reappearance for the likely favourite and SMOOTH TOM is preferred. Andy Slattery's charge has shown enough pace to be placed in two renewals of the Irish Lincolnshire and has a good record in small-field contests over hurdles. Fred Winter sixth Wendrock has been off since April but will be suited by stepping up in trip.%0A
