Formscan By John O'Riordan - It is interesting that connections have opted to go chasing at this point with recent Wexford winner MY GOOD PAL. Making the breakthrough over hurdles on that occasion, trainer Gavin Cromwell wastes no time in switching the son of Mount Nelson to the larger obstacles. Still relatively lightly raced for the Gold Cup winning trainer, the six-year-old has scope for further improvement. Former point-to-point winner Doyen Magic made an immediate impact on her chasing debut when scoring at Kilbeggan last month. Despite a 6lb rise, the mare remains fairly handicapped on her best form. Sea Of Doubt, who has been placed here over flights, is another chasing debutant worthy of consideration.
An extended handicap steeplechase for four years old and upwards rated 0-100
Penalties - Winner of a steeplechase after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each steeplechase won.
