Formscan By Michael Graham - There should be considerable improvement to come from BATTLE CRY on his second start. He was unplaced on debut in a decent maiden at Navan that has thrown up winners and holds a Group 1 Phoenix Stakes entry. Ger Lyons has won four of the last eight renewals of this race and saddles My Mate Alfie. This colt has been placed on both starts over 6f at the Curragh and holds a Group 1 National Stakes entry at the same track. Being by Dark Angel, he has every chance of handling this rain-softened ground. Donnacha O'Brien is having a good season with his juveniles and takes the wraps off Showcasing colt Starliner.
