Formscan By Alan Magee - SEA OF DOUBT was placed a number of times over hurdles last year and opened her account when reappearing at Downpatrick last month. The daughter of Affinisea again went close at the same northern venue last time and now reverts to fences off a lower mark. Benzine ran a cracker on his last chase start when beating all bar Mic Drop at Limerick, with L’amiral Fromentin back in third, and has shown promise on both hurdle outings since. Jouster won three times for Gavin Cromwell including over fences and has dropped down to an attractive mark.
