Formscan By Gary Carson - SERIENMOND may be worth a shot here despite being a few pounds out of the handicap. The Sea The Moon gelding was a cosy winner on his first outing for Gavin Cromwell and got going a bit late after meeting some traffic when third on his most recent run at Fairyhouse. There looks scope for a bit more from the five-year-old. Ascending Lark comes here having won five on the bounce and was a cosy winner at Ludlow last time. She could still be on a competitive mark. Willie Mullins has a good record in this race and top-weight Gaucher is another that commands respect.%0A
An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards that at entry have run at least three times in hurdle races (150 = 11st 12lbs)
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race or hurdle races after calculation of the handicap shall carry any penalty or penalties which may be allotted by the Handicapper.
