FormscanBy Alan Magee - POWER UNDER ME relishes soft ground and gained a seventh career win at Tipperary last time. The Ger Lyons-trained gelding won this race in 2022 and appears as good as ever judged on that latest effort. Atlantic Coast also ticks plenty of boxes as he’s very effective on this surface, has winning course form and also comes here on the back of a Listed win at Saint-Cloud earlier this month. Bright Stripes beat Norwalk Havoc on testing ground over a mile at the Curragh this spring, although Jessica Harrington’s charge may now prove a greater threat having run well last time from a bad draw in the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket.
