FormscanBy Alan Magee - GARDONE has joined the in-form Eric McNamara this year and successfully switched to this surface in decisive fashion over course and distance in August. The selection slightly spoiled his chance at the start before finishing well to take second on his only subsequent outing. Barretstown added to two course wins when scoring over 1m2f at Cork back in May and has shaped well on both outings since, while Koniag won over a mile at Leopardstown this summer and had Areana behind when runner-up to Church Mountain (won again since) here last month. Colin Keane is an interesting booking on Tastyee while Gallo Dell Cielo and Designer Cailin are others to note.
