FormscanBy Alan Magee - HE’S HOME AGAIN beat all bar the progressive Buachaillbocht over an extended 2m6f at Punchestown last month and remains at the right end of the handicap. The Eddie Cawley-trained gelding had From The Ashes about 12 lengths back in seventh and it was encouraging how strongly he finished last time. No Fussing has twice gone close over similar trips at Punchestown this year and is an obvious threat while Cosmo Renfro and See A Stride are others for the shortlist after filling the minor places behind the progressive Aodhan May over 3m1f also at Punchestown recently. Balum provided Jack Sutton with his first winner at Fairyhouse but has more to do here off an 11lb higher mark.
