Formscan By Alan Magee - COMPOSING was soundly beaten on debut behind Balantina but has taken a significant step forward with each run since winning a maiden over course and distance before impressively making all in the Group 3 Silver Flash Stakes at Leopardstown. The daughter of Wootton Bassett had Skydance over three lengths behind in second with Brownstown in fourth and looks a highly progressive filly. Balantina has since been placed in the Albany at Royal Ascot and also another Group 3 in Deauville. Suzie Songs followed up a debut win at Cork by landing the Group 3 Anglesey Stakes here on Irish Derby weekend and is another to consider.
