FormscanBy Tom Weekes - SO MESSI has a dreadful draw in 21 but is race-fit and ran well in a recent handicap. Placed in all three handicaps runs todate, he bumped into an unexposed winner at Leopardstown recently and while 2lb higher and wearing first-time cheekpieces, has form on yielding ground. Adhuil ran well at Gowran on Wednesday and while a 20-race maiden, his rider again claims 10lb and should also get involved. Naisiun won here in March and might be better suited to a mile than when finishing mid-field in a recent Curragh handicap over six furlongs. Badly drawn (17) Fleetfootsoldier has done most of his racing on the all-weather but has a good record from three runs on turf and debuts for a new yard. Dual turf winner Hale Bopp has had a busy winter on the all-weather and is holding his form while Atbay was seven lengths behind the selection (My Birthday Girl was fifth) at Leopardstown.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards rated 47-65Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
