FormscanBy John O'Riordan - With Colin Keane an eye-catching booking, SHOEBOX KING can gain a third career success. The champion jockey has done well when linking up with trainer Kevin Coleman in recent times, so his presence on the five-year-old should be noted. Now 5lb below his last winning mark, the gelded son of Aclaim has hinted at a return to form in recent outings. Wolverhampton winner Elliott showed that there were more races in him when keeping on nicely over this trip at Down Royal last time. Given that that was just his third Irish start, the three-year-old should be open to improvement. Spirit Of Eagles has run well enough on her latest two starts to suggest she can win one of these at some point.
