FormscanBy Mark Nunan - SAYITFIRST hit form on soft ground this time last year and is a speculative selection. Darren Collins' mare, who recorded her only win at Fairyhouse last October, made the frame a couple of times in August and is forgiven a recent heavy defeat at Listowel where she showed up well for a long way. The return to a right-handed track will help her cause. Three-time Flat winner Malbas was second on soft ground at Down Royal last Christmas and can show the benefit of last month's return to action at Bellewstown. Single Edition was second to an in-form rival when tried in this combination of headgear at Downpatrick and his connections will be hoping the ground doesn't soften too much.
