Company Coming took advantage of better fancied rivals coming to grief when runner-up to The Doorman on his chasing bow at Thurles last month when Marmaladeskies was a close third and the well-supported Old Castletown tailed off after numerous mistakes. There doesn't appear any reason for a form reversal unless the latter can get his jumping act together. Oscar Fiain showed an occasional glimpse of potential over hurdles and his pedigree is all about jumping fences. This doesn't look a strong race so DFORDARSI, who is still a maiden over hurdles but has been running well enough in minor handicaps, can do better over fences and reward each-way support at a fair price.
