FormscanBy Michael Graham - Testing going would bring KLASSY KAY right into it off bottom weight. She showed improvement on very deep ground at Down Royal in March to come home a fair third at 18/1. Derby De Thaix arrives on the back of a runner-up finish over an extended two miles at Ballinrobe. This sort of trip has been his undoing before, though. Galuppi's form can be very hit or miss. He was on a going day when obliging in Cork, but there are no guarantees that he will back that up off 6lbs higher. Perhaps the danger may come from I Will Walk who performed better with first-time cheekpieces applied in Kilbeggan. She kept on without threatening for fourth, and the horse a place in front of her has since won at Tramore.
