FormscanBy Donal Murphy - SILAIYLI might be able to bounce back to form in this good quality contest. The Olympic Glory colt is a half-brother to Sonaiyla and Sindhia, both of whom were successful in valuable races at the Curragh over the summer. The selection himself was an easy winner at Down Royal in June and finished a respectable tenth of twenty-three in the Petingo Handicap at Leopardstown on Champions Weekend. Rebellito finished behind him there and he since gave the form a boost by winning the feature at Listowel last Thursday. Silaiyli is now tried in blinkers for the first time and making his debut at Dundalk, a bold bid looks likely. The Noel Meade trained Ben Siegel is given second preference after his impressive seven-length success at Down Royal. Dollar Value filled the runner-up spot there and he gave the form a significant boost by winning easily on his next start at Navan. Moon Daisy was second at the Curragh on Sunday and he is sure to have plenty of supporters, while others for the shortlist are Gowran winner Bonte Moi, the 85 rated Bright Idea and the Andrew Oliver pair of Blue Shadow and Sense Of Worth.
