ORDINARY WORLD has a poor strike-rate for such a useful chaser and was put in his place by stable companion Moon Over Germany here last month. However, his overall form, particularly when runner-up to Min in a Grade 1 at Leopardstown in February, looks too good for these. Cloudy Morning returned from the point-to-point scene in brilliant form last season and was a revelation when landing a lucrative handicap at Punchestown in May by 18 lengths, though that was over 3m7f. Stormey has never won over fences but makes a quick reappearance after being headed close home by Charlie Stout at Galway on Monday. Ard Na Carraig, 0-16 over hurdles, made a successful chasing debut at Downpatrick a year ago but was well beaten on his next start while You Can't Catch Me , five times a winner over hurdles, hasn't looked up to this class over the bigger obstacles.
Ard Na Carraig 16-1 (9-1) Dwelt, soon raced in 18th, switched right 3f out, no extra from 2f out, 19th of 21, 15 1/4l behind Aasleagh Fawn (9-0) at Navan 1m 6f hcp gf in Sep.
Ordinary World (IRE) 7-2 (11-2) Held up in 4th, ridden to progress after 3 out, 2nd before 2 out, pressed leader 2 out, under pressure in 2nd when slight mistake last, no impression and kept on same pace run-in, 2nd of 5, 4 3/4l behind Moon Over Germany (11-2) at Ballinrobe 2m 1f sft in Aug.
Cloudy Morning (IRE) 11-1 (9-10) Tracked leaders, slight mistakes 1st and 6th, improved to dispute lead 4 out, led next, ridden and joined before 2 out, led again 2 out and went clear, stayed on well run-in, won at Punchestown 3m 7f hcp Good - Yielding in May beating Regal Encore (11-10) by 18l, 17 ran.
You Can't Catch Me (IRE) 16-1 (11-7) Soon led, headed after 3rd, remained prominent, on terms again 7th, slight mistake 4 out, narrowly headed before last, one pace run-in and dropped to 3rd near finish, 3rd of 11, 3 1/2l behind Bay Hill (11-4) at Bellewstown 2m 4f hcp gd in Aug.
Stormey (IRE) 16-1 (11-12) Prominent, disputed lead briefly 3rd, led from 7th, 2 lengths clear entering straight and pushed along over 1f out, ridden and headed closing stages, no extra, 2nd of 14, 1l behind Charlie Stout (11-12) at Galway 2m 2f sft in Sep.
