Formscan By Dan McEvoy - INVER BAY (6) brings the strongest form to the table here as she seeks to complete a hat trick. The daughter of Califet won comfortably over hurdles at Roscommon before winning a flat handicap at that venue. Aidan Howard's mare got 7lbs for that success, but she should be able to cope with that. Top weight Dark Summit has a definite chance dropping in grade and moving up in trip. Joey Sheridan retains the ride, and he is seemingly improving with every run for Paul Flynn. You Make Me Smile is the second reserve, but she bids to double up, akin to last year, after winning a Sligo handicap hurdle. The Rock Factor may also be worth watching in the market.
