GALE FORCE OSCAR has been going from strength-to-strength and, as he's still only seven, can gain his first success under Rules after his five victories between the flags. Railway Storm has performed in slightly better company and should get competitive while Ebony Palm came good at Dawstown earlier this month and is on the upgrade. Dunbrovic represents Willie Mullins and there looked to be something amiss when he pulled up in a hunter chase at Downpatrick. He won at Tattersalls Farm last month and looks the main threat.
