Formscan By John O'Riordan - Having caught the eye staying on late at Killarney on debut, GIMMIE SHELTER should be good enough to go two places better. Joseph O'Brien usually leaves something to work on with his first-time out juveniles, so unless they are well above average, they tend to improve for the initial run. The colt should know more now and will be difficult to beat. Man Of Eden finished mid-division in a Galway maiden that is likely to throw up a few winners. Slowly away, he kept on nicely and should also do better at the second time of asking. Adelaide River is of obvious interest representing the Aidan O'Brien stable. The trainer often introduces a smart two-year-old at this track, so he should be monitored closely in the betting market.
