FormscanBy Tom Weekes - PAGGANE was effectively brought down at the Galway festival and had previously shown useful form in winning over a similar distance at Kilbeggan. She disappointed at Grade 1 and Listed levels earlier this year but has a light weight today, is ground-versatile while the form of her recent Kilbeggan success has worked out quite well. Stablemate Femme Magnifique finished third at the Galway festival and steps up in distance, while progressive Beaufort Scale steps out of maiden hurdle company for the first time. Drumgill was officially rated 105 when winning three consecutive recent races (albeit winning the latter when carrying a 7lb penalty) but concedes plenty weight.
