FormscanBy Gary Carson - LADIAM may improve a bit from her comeback run in Limerick last month and could be worth a shot here. The Malinas mare just faded a touch late on then and that was understandable as it was her first outing since June 2023. She has been eased a pound since and looks on a winnable mark. Milanaway was well beaten in maiden company last time but had run well previously in a Fairyhouse handicap and is capable of getting involved here. Slip Jig didn't run too badly when sixth on her handicap debut in Limerick, having won a maiden hurdle here previously. She takes a big step up in trip now.
