FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Held in high regard by her trainer Andy Slattery, dual course winner EASY might be able to take this competitive heat. Out of action for over a year and a half, the Kodiac four-year-old impressed when successful on her return, with Slattery commenting in the aftermath: "If I have a Group 1 horse, this is it." UK raider Clarendon House is the highest rated runner in the line-up and is sure to have plenty of supporters with Colin Keane aboard. The eight-time winner lost all chance when very slow out of the stalls in the Epsom Dash on his most recent start, but was successful the time before that at York. First and second 12-months ago, Go Athletico and Ano Syra again do battle, with the latter an excellent third in a Group 3 at the Curragh on her latest outing. A close-up second and third in a Listed contest at Naas last month, Twilight Jet and So Majestic are others that warrant respect.
