FormscanBy Tom Weekes - WHATEYS QUEST might benefit from some neat planning and having won on Thursday, is well-in as he pursues a debut chase win. His Clonmel success was gained in an unplaced maiden hurdle but nonetheless his revised 111 rating would have excluded him from this race, prior to entry stage. Today's same rider claims 2lb less but has the size to do well over fences. Willie Mullins' lightly-raced eight-year-old Surf Club is no star but is race-fit and could be suited by stepping up in distance on chase debut. Walk Out was left clear at the final fence to win by 37 lengths in a recent point-to-point and being rated 94 over hurdles, has place claims receiving her 7lb mares' allowance. Similarly rated Knocknagappagh is a 23-race maiden while Gali Flight is a 30-race maiden. Iron Allen won an unplaced maiden hurdle last December and has chase experience while General Clermont is quite exposed.
