FormscanBy Michael Graham - THE NAMES JOCK's fifth place in a 0-140 handicap hurdle at Listowel last month reads well in the context of this race. Since then, he has finished runner-up in a couple of races on the Flat at Fairyhouse and Leopardstown. Morricone has been enjoying himself in Punchestown and has clocked up two victories there this year. His fifth in the Full Circle Series Final Handicap Hurdle at that track in April wasn't a bad effort and he's had a break since then. Red Glory has posted runner-up finishes in Tipperary and Downpatrick, while recent winners It'sallabouteve (over fences in Tipperary), Contrapposto and Baltinglass Hill add plenty of spice to the mix.
