FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - A beaten odds-on favourite at Wexford last time, TREBIZOND may atone for that defeat now. His conqueror then, Barnacullia, has been far from disgraced in the meantime, taking fifth place in the Grade B Liam Healy Memorial Lartigue Handicap Hurdle at Listowel. Trebizond wasn’t matching the winner at Bettyville when not fluent at the last, but overall his jumping experience and 111 rating probably makes the son of Golden Horn the one to aim at. However, Boom Boom Boom, just three parts of a length behind Trebizond at Wexford, is a danger again, whilst Boola Boola (4th then) looks held on that evidence. Trainer of the selection, Henry de Bromhead, also has Some Dove in the mix. She has plenty going for her on paper and it’ll be interesting to monitor market movements. Pat Kelly, Mark McNiff and Gordon Elliott are all strong numbers-wise, whilst Andys Flame, Heronord and Stumptown are others to keep in mind.
