Going - Soft, Yielding to Soft in places. Cold and dry

Formscan By Michael Graham - HI SKI could be the answer. Ross O'Sullivan's mare is a lightly-raced sort who took second in a Limerick maiden hurdle on her last start. She makes her handicap debut under Ben Harvey who has ridden a winner since turning conditional. Fox Le Bel has the ability to win one of these, but is a long-standing maiden and a beaten favourite in third in his last couple of outings. True Destiny won in a lesser grade on penultimate start at Sligo. He wasn't a factor over an extended 3m at this track at the start of November, but has been freshened up since. Bellaney Gem's Irish form has been uninspiring, however, she has been well placed to pick up prize money in Britain. The first-time visor could have a positive impact.
