FormscanBy John O'Riordan - The only previous winner over fences in the race, SOMEONE'S WISH can maintain his unbeaten chasing record. Gordon Elliott's four-year-old stayed on strongly under Jack Kennedy when opening his account at the first time of asking at Downpatrick last month. Following a recent spin on the Flat in the student derby, the gelding should be primed for this assignment. Noble Talent ran a big race when runner-up on his chasing debut at Sligo recently. Sure to be all the better for that experience, the one concern is that he drops back nearly half-a-mile in trip here. Chasing debutant Ah Remy Martin was just about the best of these over hurdles. If he takes to the larger obstacles, the Thomas Gibney-trained gelding should go very close.

Quotes on Zolpharine (IRE)
This is a lovely horse, he's a half-brother to Fairyhill Run,. My cousin Tom Meagher bred him and the mother died when he was only three weeks old. Then his foster mother had bits of problems, it's only now he's growing into a horse. He's a useful horse. He'll go to Listowel now for the winners of one novice. He wants further, he's out of a Flemensfirth mare. Fairyhill Run is a brilliant mare, she won a lot for us. She got an injury but it looks like she'll come back. I'd say he's way better than her, he's exciting. He's not very big yet but he's a nice one and he won that race with a bit in hand.After Zolpharine (IRE) finished 1st at Kilbeggan on Fri, 8th Sep 2023 2m Maiden Hurdle Good to Yielding

Quotes on Someone's Wish (IRE)
It has been one of those days and it wasn't going right, but it is great to come out of here with a winner. We normally do, so it is nice to get a winner. . He was just beaten here in June and he likes the good ground. They do a great job with the ground here and he jumped well, so I can't complain.After Someone's Wish (IRE) finished 1st at Downpatrick on Fri, 20th Sep 2024 2m 1f Chase Good
