FormscanBy Gary Carson - GAELIC WARRIOR looks the standout here despite having the burden of top-weight. The Maxios gelding was a touch unfortunate not to win the 'Boodles' at Cheltenham last year when a bit green on his first outing for Willie Mullins. He has had a couple of easy tasks this season but obviously has a big engine and looks a bit better than handicap company. His tendency to jump right would be the one concern. Hey Johnny improved from his seasonal debut to win nicely at Thurles a fortnight ago. He has a nice low weight in this and could run a big race. The four-year-old Common Practice is a pound out of the handicap but is another interesting one with a light weight. He has been running behind some very smart juveniles of late and may not be badly treated off a mark of 128.
