FormscanBy Mark Nunan - COURTING VICKIE has run well on all three starts in handicap company thus far and might get her turn here as she steps back up in trip. She wasn’t that far behind subsequent dual winner Sullane Hill when fifth at Cork last time over 2m and had previously stayed on well to be fourth at Fairyhouse. The Dreams Alive was ahead of the selection on the latter occasion but needs to bounce back from a poor run on her most recent outing at the same venue. Robindevidastar ran quite respectably in his maidens and is a handicap debutant to note while Flat winner Roses Queen isn’t all that exposed over hurdles and put up a good showing when runner-up at Sligo last month.
