FormscanBy Michael Graham - DECIMATION represents an in-form stable and has prospects after a good run in second at Listowel. He was clearly outgunned by the winner, however, the support came for him that day in a better class of race and he was nicely clear of the remainder. Cafe Del Mar has been hurdling for the most part but, the one time she was sighted over fences, she took the runner-up berth at Wexford in August which brings her into contention. Ardaghs Choice finished a place behind her in third at Wexford which gives him a chance, while Greenway Machine is an honest veteran who generally runs his race.
