FormscanBy John O'Riordan - MAGIC TRICKS, a winner on his chasing debut at Down Royal earlier this month, can maintain his unbeaten record. With a rating of 143 over hurdles, he was just about the best of these. Runner-up on his only point-to-point start, the Gordon Elliott-trained gelding has already shown he can jump. Dreal Deal ran a respectable race in handicap company at the Punchestown festival, having won over fences at Down Royal on his previous start. Summer Tide who impressed when winning at Cork in April may have found the step up in trip against him when disappointing at Tipperary subsequently. Back over the minimum here, the Charles Byrnes-trained nine-year-old has to be involved.
