FormscanBy Michael Graham - There was a lot to like about ARDFERT MARY's runner-up spot over a similar trip in Gowran Park last month. John Ryan's mare came home well after the third-last hurdle and was clear of the remainder. Philip Rothwell and Tiernan Power Roche have been plundering plenty of winners and Duffys Hodey is another leading contender. This seven-year-old gelding ran his best race to date when getting up for second over a shorter trip in Tipperary. Ryan also has Love Like This who posted a runner-up berth in a higher grade at Thurles which reads well in the context of this race. This trip shouldn't inconvenience her.
