FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - We've only seen the seven-year-old CLONDAW COURT four times but he's unbeaten between a point-to-point, a bumper and two hurdles. He obviously hasn't been completely straight-forward to train and indeed he missed an intended engagement at Punchestown lately as he was lame. However the former Colin Bowe 'pointer,' is a course and distance winner, he's gone well fresh in the past and with a rating of 142 the son of Court Cave gets the nod. Not surprisingly Mrs Harrington likes Ttebbob plenty and he strikes one as the main danger to the selection. Mister Red showed his talent when winning in France. He's only a four-year-old though and connections will surely be happy if he's there or thereabouts against this class of opponent. Mount Colah, a classy chaser, has won at Thurles before and he certainly has the ability to shake them all up in receipt of a nice bit of weight with Noel McParlan's claim. We associate the northern raider with shorter trips under Rules but he did win 'between the flags.'
