FormscanBy Alan Magee - HIGHER KINGDOM won four times at Dundalk for John McConnell and appears to be on a competitive mark having kept on from off the pace to finish fourth behind Top Of The Pops at Gowran on Wednesday. The selection can be troublesome in the stalls and hopefully will get away on terms. There is little to choose between Rockbury Lad and Free Solo on running behind Pink Oxalis over this trip at Dundalk last month. The Michael O’Callaghan-trained gelding likes to be held up for a late challenge and should go close given some luck in running. Dundalk maiden winner Vierson is another to consider while Pandion Power needs to bounce back after disappointing on his reappearance at the Curragh.
