FormscanBy Mark Nunan - WARMER DAYS AHEAD hasn't been beaten far in his last two starts at Punchestown and may get his turn here under Phillip Enright. The Waldpark gelding found only one too good over 2m4f in May and dropping in trip probably counted against him when third last time. Going back up a couple of furlongs should bring the five-year-old's stamina into play. Stockdale hasn't been able to add to a solitary win gained over three years ago but she's been second at this track over both hurdles and fences in recent starts and is now fitted with a tongue-tie. Cullenwaine was strong at the finish when winning over course and distance last month and merits respect off a 6lb higher mark.%0A%0A
