FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - A big spread on the weights with Jett up the top of the handicap off his 150 rating. BEST BEHAVIOR is in with a nice racing weight of ten stone eight, and Conor Orr’s three pound claim is a further plus for the chances of Oliver McKiernan’s course and distance winner. The negative is that the chestnut has fallen on his last couple of outings over the larger obstacles. Maybe a first time hood will switch him off enough to be more sure-footed. Victorious at Naas just over three weeks back, Minella Till Dawn is among the many dangers.
