Formscan By Alan Magee - FARREN GLORY was a Grade 1 winner over hurdles last season and met a smart sort on debut over fences at Wexford before going one better at Naas last time. The Gordon Elliott-trained gelding appeared to slip at a few fences but ultimately scored in decisive fashion and should benefit from that experience. Fascile Mode and Touch Me Not were only separated by a neck when fighting out the finish in a beginners’ chase over course and distance last month, while Jordans has taken well to fences and also boasts winning course form in a 2m2f Grade 3. Galway Hurdle winner Nurburgring is the pick of these over flights and made a promising start over fences at Navan last weekend.
