FormscanBy Michael Graham - MAIMIE'S MAGIC is entitled to come on from her fifth place in a big field at Navan last month. That was her first outing for almost seven months and she made up ground at the business end. Furthermore, that effort came in a higher grade which gives hope that she can defy the burden of 12st 4lb. Ivane has winning form on testing ground at Galway in October which makes him dangerous in this company even if he hasn't been at his best on his last couple of starts. Man River showed much more form when third over further at Wexford which gives him claims. Banada Bridge, Go Gill Go and Tuckmill are all in with a shout of landing a cheque.
