FormscanBy Tom Weekes - STILL CIEL is capable and receives weight from the previous winners. A point-to-point winner on debut, she has yet to race on soft ground but is experienced and bumped into capable types on her last two starts. Can't Stop Smiling's August run was the subject of a Rule 212 suspension and having lost a subsequent appeal, reappears today. The Ballinrobe runner-up won subsequently and while Mark Walsh now takes the ride, she nonetheless has a fair task on more testing ground. Lady Of The Vale makes her jumps debut but has recent bumper form. She has yet to run on soft ground but won on an easy surface at Clonmel. Get Me To The Park won on debut at Downpatrick but was green and keen when disappointing on hurdles debut. She returned with a superficial cut and was blowing hard at Sligo but is now on a retrieval mission. Beyond Ambitions finished second in a Grade 3 Punchestown festival bumper but has disappointed in three subsequent hurdles and runs in a first-time tongue-tie.
