FormscanBy Michael Graham - Tom Gibney's stable has been among the winners and he could have another with ROBIN DE ROOST. His runner-up finish in Punchestown has been well endorsed as the horse behind him in third came out and won a Kilbeggan handicap chase by five lengths. Local trainer Brian Hamilton saddles Dynamic Allen who goes well here. Her two victories both came in Downpatrick including last month in a beginners' chase. Shane Fitzgerald takes a more than handy 7lb off her back. Doldido was beaten into second by Dynamic Allen here and comes back for more. This double hurdle winner is finding it harder to get his head in front over the bigger obstacles but can get in the hunt for a cheque. Just Another Lady has been in decent form over hurdles and makes her chasing debut in a competitive contest. Drummullagh Rocky is another to consider.
