Formscan By Tom Weekes - Experienced chaser UNION STATION might gain an overdue first career success, despite lacking race-fitness. Although undoubtedly frustrating to follow, the selection has shown himself at his best since being upped to dour-staying distances from March 2025 onwards, and while race-fitness is a concern, he likes soft ground. Race-fit Its Time For A Run won a Downpatrick bumper in July and again ran well at Fairyhouse recently, but softening ground is a concern for him. Colossal Impact ran notably well on debut last March and while he should improve from his recent seasonal reappearance, steps up markedly in distance on his jumps debut. Fuusland ran well at Downpatrick recently.
