FormscanBy Gary Carson - ROCK ON DANDY won with a nice bit in hand here nine days ago and is fancied to follow up. He could be called the winner from a good bit out on his first start for Fergal Birrane and eventually ran out a very cosy three-length winner. A rise of 7lb may not be enough to stop him striking again. Pillard is a bit of a dark horse in the field making his first start for Paul Hennessy. He was a smart sort over hurdles in England for Jonjo O'Neill and has also been placed a couple of times off this mark on the level. Asian Wing ran well when chasing home the in-form Tropic Thunder here last time over ten furlongs and may be able to pick up some prize-money again.
