Formscan  - MATATA may have been found out in Grade 1 company towards the back end of last season, but he remains a talented sort to keep on side as he makes his first foray outside of novice company. The six-year-old has an unblemished record when fresh and may be able to strike at the main expense of last year's winner Dancing On My Own, who arrives in top form following a comfortable success at Ballinrobe in August. Calico has gone well here before more than once, while Arclight remains an interesting prospect in this sphere.
