FormscanBy Gary Carson - Willie Mullins has a terrific strike rate in bumpers and it would be no surprise if KARA DE THAIX made a winning start here. The Jeu St Eloi filly cost 26,000 euro as a store and is a half-sister to three winners in France, including a horse that was Grade 2 placed over fences. Romany Brown has a couple of nice runs under his belt and commands respect. He just lost out by a head over hurdles at Clonmel last month. Another track newcomer to note is point-to-point winner Scope To Improve. The Telescope gelding makes his first start for Henry de Bromhead having been an easy winner between the flags on his debut at Necarne in May.
