Hurdle - Heavy Chase - Soft to Heavy, heavy in places View all races

Formscan By Michael Graham - A step up in trip on testing ground is expected to suit MAKAIAH. She outran her odds when keeping on for second at this venue last month and Aidan Kelly claims 5lb again. Elusive Guy showed much more in second at Clonmel and looks dangerous for Jarlath Fahey. Lilian Bland finished third when gambled on over fences at Cork, so has to be respected in reverting to the smaller obstacles. Wendell's Lass was still in there pitching with a share of the lead when she fell two out over a similar trip in Punchestown, so shouldn't be ruled out. Market support for Gavin Cromwell's Mickie Angel would be significant.
