Betancourt has travelled over from County Antrim and has shown a bit of promise. So has K O Kenny while Massini's Lady was fourth on debut over course and distance last month. Limos won a point-to-point at Inch just over a year ago but this will be his first run since. John Ferguson doesn't have many runners here but those that make the journey are usually in the firing-line and his BENGO is unlikely to be an exception. He started favourite on his debut at Doncaster and only weakened inside the final furlong. He'll know more today and should recoup losses.
