Race preview
NANCY WYSE has stand-out point-to-point form and should take all the beating. NANCY WYSE ran well on point-to-point debut (the race has worked out very well) and while well beaten on her second start, that was a smart contest and her subsequent effort in beating Norwigi (a later maiden hurdle winner) and two other subsequent point winners at Lingstown in November reads extremely well in the context of this ordinary looking bumper, with today's trip suiting ideally. Bankoncarlo ran well over hurdles at Clonmel 11 days ago and has some place claims while Beckys Angel has shown some point-to-point form but should struggle to win. Milliway is from the family of Newmill but was well beaten on bumper debut 370 days ago.
