FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Several of the apparent bigger players begin over jumps, and CAPTAIN KANGAROO could put his previous hurdling experience to good use. The Mastercraftsman gelding started off over flights at this venue in November and he’s since been a beaten odds-on shot at Punchestown. The winner then, Hes A Hardy Bloke, has gone on to score at Cork. In truth as much as anything else the selection probably needs to tidy up his jumping and that should come with the more outings he has. Gordon Elliott and Ross O’Sullivan are both two-handed. Grand Paradis looks the pick of this grouping under Jack Kennedy, whilst Julies Stowaway, On Eagles Wings, Colemanstown Lad and Limestone Rock are others to keep in mind.
