FormscanBy Donal Murphy - A dual point-to-point winner, INTERSKY SUNSET might be able to take this weak affair. Successful over flights at Gowran in November, the Declan Queally-trained seven-year-old has been a bit disappointing since. She hinted at a return to form when a close third at Tramore on her most recent start and it'll come as no surprise if she manages to go a few places better now. Natural Breeze was a solid fifth on his debut over fences at Tramore recently and looks a leading contender here, while On My Bike, who won on his penultimate start at Punchestown, is likely to have plenty of supporters with Conor Stone Walsh aboard. Cocoplum and Stockdale represent local connections and both warrant respect, while Townhill Penny and Tullyveery Lad complete the line-up, with the former tried in blinkers for the first time.
