FormscanBy Gary Carson - INDIVIDUALISTE stayed on to finish fourth in a similar race at Gowran last time and looks capable of striking at this level. His jumping was a bit hit and miss then but he caught the eye when behind Noble Talent and may appreciate stepping up in trip now. Crossing The Bar has run a couple of solid races since joining Cian Collins and he may be able to do better now back over fences, having been well beaten in his two chase starts in England. Oneforgonzo won twice over hurdles earlier in the year and is one to note on his return to action.
