Formscan By Press Association - STARBORN LEGEND (9) came within a whisker of making it second-time lucky at the Curragh, after which he was sent off joint-favourite for a race at the Galway Festival. He had to settle for fourth after meeting trouble, but that was a good maiden and he was just behind a subsequent winner. He is preferred to Tourin, who showed she handles soft ground when making a debut full of promise in third at Limerick. Hasita is exposed now but is certainly capable of picking up more minor money, as is Holy Lettuce. Marked By Thunder is a newcomer to keep a close eye on.
