FormscanBy Tom Weekes - PRAY TELL was well beaten at the Galway festival in July but had previously shown better form and now contests an ordinary maiden. A point-to-point winner who clearly stays well, dropping in distance isn't ideal today but the form of his Wexford-placing in May reads well and he receives weight from the top five horses today, while his rider also claims 2lb. Next Week won a Killarney bumper in 2022 and while he was well held in his initial two hurdle runs, showed better form here last time and could well be suited by today's longer distance. Augusta George is a recent bumper winner but has been well beaten in two previous hurdle runs.
