FormscanBy Mark Nunan - SOARING MONARCH was runner-up twice at the Galway Festival and, having not reached the price that connections wanted at a horses-in-training sale last month, comes here for his first start since. The Free Eagle gelding still looks on a reasonable mark. Kevin Manning will have a good idea of the selection’s capabilities having been his regular rider this season, and he’s now on a likely danger in Listowel winner Sheer Bravado who’s 12lb higher for that win but still lightly-raced and open to improvement. Kodiac Prince has been consistent since winning at Gowran Park in July and is likely to go well again under these conditions. Miss Myers has run well several times in good company but has a tough task under a welter burden.
