FormscanBy Mark Nunan - Jack Kennedy returns from suspension and might get straight back into the winning groove on CROKE PARK. The point-to-point winner landed a Grade 3 novice hurdle at Navan just under a year ago before being found wanting a couple of times at the highest level. He's unproven on a sound surface, so hopefully there's enough juice in the ground for him to take his chance. Gordon Elliott also has Cleatus Poolaw in here and he, too, is a winning pointer who was a useful hurdler last term. Iris Emery had jumped better when stepped up in trip at Tramore before crumpling on landing when in front two out while Sequestered was a creditable fourth at Galway last time.%0A%0A%0A
