FormscanBy Gary Carson - MAXI MAC GOLD had some solid placed form before getting off the mark in fine style at Cork last month and this looks like a nice opportunity to bag another win. The Doctor Dino won easily over a similar trip last time and sets a decent standard here off an official mark of 125. The Willie Mullins-trained mare Paggane is weighted to be a danger. She finished seventh in a hot mares contest at Punchestown last time and tackles this trip for the first time. Clodders Dream was a good winner at Clonmel last time and could improve for going up in trip now. He's another for the shortlist.
