Formscan By Michael Graham - SAINT SAM is in terrific form, mixing hurdling and chasing for Willie Mullins, and could repeat his victory in this race in 2022. He likes to make all and is certainly going to make this a test for the talented opposition. His stablemate, Sir Gerhard, won this race last year and could enjoy these calmer waters after finding life difficult in Grade 1 company on his last two starts. Ballyadam is making his seasonal reappearance, but with a rating of 149 cannot be ruled out while Relieved Of Duties is up in class after putting his rivals to the sword in a maiden hurdle at Cork.
