Formscan By Gary Carson - LYNCHES KNOCK is already a winner having landed an academy hurdle and has run well to be placed in two maiden hurdles since. The form of his third placed effort at Naas has been boosted with the runner-up Dschingis Desire scoring since. He also had Fred Winter winner Saratoga behind when runner-up at the Kildare venue previously. Dawn Coming bumped into a nice sort in Charme De Faust at Thurles. That rival ran well to finish fourth in the Mares Novices’ at Cheltenham. Genealogy was second to Fred Winter runner-up Winston Junior on his penultimate outing and is another that has to come into calculations.
A hurdle for four years old only, maidens at starting
Weights - 11st 7lbs. Fillies allowed 7lbs.
