FormscanBy Alan Magee - GIANT HAYSTACKS showed promise on his first start for current connections when staying on into the frame in a 23-runner 2m Navan handicap and confirmed that good impression when opening his account in another competitive 2m4f handicap at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting. The booking of Conor Stone-Walsh adds to confidence, and he can defy an 8lb rise in the ratings. Krabat is a generally consistent sort both over hurdles and fences and was a creditable fifth behind Farmers Lodge (won again since) at Fairyhouse last time. Miss Lia won a Tramore maiden in August and was having her first run since when far from disgraced switching to handicap company at Fairyhouse last month.
