Formscan - FOUND A FIFTY has been a model of consistency since going over fences, being campaigned exclusively in Grade 1 company since a successful chasing debut at Down Royal in November. The Gordon Elliott-trained seven-year-old struck at Leopardstown's Christmas meeting and has found only one too strong in both the English and Irish Arkle, as well as the Drinmore. Willie Mullins horses beat him in all three of those races and the all-conquering trainer could provide the main stumbling block again, this time in the shape of Hercule Du Seuil, who has been kept fresh since completing a five-timer at Punchestown in October. Quilixios flopped in the Arkle at Cheltenham but is better than that, while Nickle Back has been a revelation since going over the larger obstacles and trounced Djelo in the Scilly Isles.
