Formscan By Shane Redmond - MORE COKO (4) might just put it up to the three previous chase winners on his first start since April. He landed both his bumper and his maiden hurdle here and boasts some decent form over fences himself, the highlight being his runner-up finish in a Grade 3 handicap chase at Fairyhouse at the beginning of the year. Rocky’s Diamond pulled-up in the Galway Plate but bounced back to win over hurdles at Kilbeggan last Saturday and looks the biggest threat ahead of both Thecompanysergeant, a winner over hurdles at Clonmel in June, and Anyway, a big fancy when an early casualty in last year’s Galway Plate.

Quotes on Anyway (GER)
He jumped well, travelled well, and he was entitled to win it. It’s grand to get a win into him over fences. He wouldn’t want it heavy, but soft or yielding is grand. He’s actually very good on real fast ground. He was never over faced and is learning to get quicker and quicker. Cheltenham made a man of him - the speed and the fences coming up quick. I’m not sure what the plans are, but I’d imagine he’ll get an entry in the Galway Plate.

Quotes on Rocky's Diamond (IRE)
That was brilliant, it was some round of jumping to be fair. I was a bit worried beforehand that he had been very exuberant at home, standing off outside the wings. I was saying ‘if he gets one of these wrong, it’s not going to be good’. I’d say when he’s going on in a race, going faster, he does know what he’s doing even though he’s very exuberant. He’s a very good jumper. Michael had done a good bit of schooling on him, he knows when you see a long one on him just to go for it. I didn’t really want to go to Listowel as the fences are a little bit bigger and they are trappier. I wanted to get that out of the way, so we can afford to sit back and chill now a little and see where we go. We’ll probably look for a graded race somewhere. The Florida Pearl at Punchestown at the end of November is three miles - we’ll see. He’s only in nine weeks as well, which is a fair trial of him. He only came in on the first of July. He’s only tipping away, but he has a lot of natural ability - he’s a very good horse. It’s unreal to have a horse like him, I’m just pinching myself every day. It’s great.

Quotes on More Coko (FR)
He won well with me here in August. My mother bred him and you can see he is a French bred as Madam Jacky Mullins is down as the breeder. She sent two or three mares over to France five or six years ago, kept them there and used the French stallions. They came home then when the foals were 18 months (old). She wanted to try something different and I think she has a nice one here. His owners, Paul and his brother John are here today. I won on Onlyamatteroftime in my own colours at Warwick in the summer and they had a horse in the race. They bought Onlyamatteroftime off me and he got injured on his first run for them. There were looking for a second horse, so they bought More Coko. They are from Galway, but based in the UK. They came over to see him run today and it's great that he has won. Brian came in and said he could be a chaser, he jumped with plenty of scope. He is obviously very versatile regards the ground, it was very heavy today and good in August. We will just keep tipping away with him and he might head over to England for a novice hurdle. We will build him up slowly. In England you can go for those novice hurdles, winners of one, winners of two and we don't have those races here. He might suit one of those races.
