FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - You only have to look at the stats for favourites at Punchestown, underneath the list of races on this site, to see that following the market-leader at the home of Irish National Hunt racing can be a profitable ploy. It's difficult to know what will go off 'jolly' but Hidden Cyclone currently holds that position and it's difficult to argue with that. That 160-rated performer should run his race but the 164 gelding SOMERSBY gets the nod on this occasion. Mick Channon's ten-year-old has his first start in Ireland now, having been sold by Ballincurrig House Stud in Cork as a foal back in 2004. Tony McCoy takes the reins again on Somersby after a considerable break - December 2009 - and a bold bid seems likely. With seven of the ten participants listed at 10/1 or less this is an open heat and indeed if Days Hotel (25/1), Savello (14/1) or Turban (12/1) were to make an impression it would hardly be the biggest surprise in the world either.
