FormscanBy John O'Riordan - A winner at Wexford last month, STORMY MASTER can double up for trainer Ray Hackett. The 10-year-old, who is at his best on a quick surface, should get his ground here. Repeat That, who scored over hurdles at Kilbeggan on his penultimate start, is much better handicapped over fences. Although yet to trouble the judge in eight starts, the David Harry Kelly-trained veteran has to be competitive if putting in a clear round. Recent Galway fourth Ballagh Star is interesting on this chasing debut. The six-year-old remains open to improvement after just 12 career starts. Having shaped with definite promise last time, it would be no surprise to see the Ask gelding play a leading role in this modest contest.
