FormscanBy Tom Weekes - AZTEC PARADE was an easy winner at Leopardstown last month and can follow up here, despite being wrong at the weights with Real Force and Latin Five. AZTEC PARADE showed good ability on his initial two starts and while he was expected to win his maiden at Leopardstown as the 1/6 favourite, did win by 10 lengths and appears to be progressing well, with today's rider claiming a helpful 3lbs. Real Force has a rating of 99 and is a big danger, having shown smart ability last year and on two runs this year. His form had been over sprint trips prior to his latest run at Killarney but ran well over a mile then and should give the selection plenty to worry about. Latin Five improved his rating following a good effort at Naas latest but now steps up half a furlong to this trip for the first time, with testing ground another concern stamina-wise. Comfort Line was beaten in a Galway handicap 10 days ago but has form on testing ground and could get involved, despite being a little wrong at the weights.
