FormscanBy Tom Weekes - HE'S LEADING ME ON is consistent, won well at Tramore last Thursday and is officially 2lb well-in. Out of an unraced sister to Newmill, HE'S LEADING ME ON seemed to improve when winning over this distance at Tramore and while a quick reappearance isn't ideal, he can continue progressing, being a five year old. Sphagnum, another improving five year old, is also well suited by this distance and while he competes from 4lb higher than when runner-up at Killarney, should run well. It's Time Again has won twice this summer and while dropping in trip isn't ideal, has solid place claims. Ballinlough Gale has yet to win in eight hurdle runs but ran well here 13 days ago, while Zaccarela is a 16-race maiden who runs in a first-time tongue-tie.
