FormscanBy Gary Carson - PAPA BARNS was well backed when last seen at Naas early last month and may be worth a shot in a weak looking contest. The Mustameet gelding had stayed on to finish fourth at Leopardstown on his previous outing but weakened at the business end last time. He had a couple of nice runs at Fairyhouse last autumn and on slightly better ground now may get closer. Point-to-point winner Chance Another One showed a bit more last time when sixth, albeit well-beaten, in a Naas maiden hurdle. He could make more impression now on his handicap debut. The experienced Junot has placed form over hurdles and fences and is another to consider.
