Formscan By Stuart Howden - Having backed up her breakthrough victory here with a pleasing second at Fairyhouse last month, Tatum must enter the reckoning given her upward trajectory. However, a 4lb rise in the ratings does demand more from Noel Meade's filly and LA DAME BLANCHE could prove to be slightly better handicapped. The six-year-old appreciated a drop in class/trip when filling the runner-up spot at Tramore last week and, off an unchanged mark, compensation could be on the cards. Miss Nifty is also noted.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards (80 = 10st)
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
