FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - LORD LARIAT is rated 122 over fences and he’s attractive off 110 in this sphere. The Golden Lariat gelding has his first outing for the Dermot McLoughlin yard now, and a huge performance is surely in the offing from the progressive and consistent six-year-old. Irish Grand National winning trainer McLoughlin also has Thunderosa and Trickey Trix in the mix, and the County Meath-based handler can walk away with a fair chunk of this prize fund. Brosna George can go well as he begins for Sonny Carey, whilst in new colours Ardaghs Choice is a contender. The likes of Hewick, Se Mo Laoch, Walk Me Home and That’s Lifebuoy will be on all short-lists as well.
