Going - Yielding, Yielding to Soft in places (Hurdle); Yielding to Soft, Soft in places (Chase). Overcast

Formscan By Mark Nunan - A course winner over hurdles, SAMMY SMART was a fine second on his handicap chase debut at Thurles last month. The winner followed up on his next outing and is now rated 30lb higher than when the selection came up against him. Trainer Tom Gibney has had a couple of horses run well in recent days and the Kalanisi gelding looks set to go close under his capable 5lb claimer. Crecora Hills had Three In A Row back in fourth when a well-backed winner at Naas and may be progressive enough to confirm that form despite a 12lb swing in the weights. Casey West bounced back to form when second at Fairyhouse and has to enter calculations as well. %0A
