Formscan By Michael Graham - This race used to be farmed by Dermot Weld and he has a live contender in SILVER KISS (8). There was a lot to like about her opening third at Fairyhouse behind two horses who could be stakes class with the runner-up subsequently winning a maiden by nine lengths. Paddy Twomey introduces The Good Wife who has some big-race entries and will know her job. Aidan O'Brien is doublehanded and jockey bookings indicate that Madam Secretary is the pick of them. She has been out twice and got closer to the breakthrough in Newmarket when beaten two lengths into third. O'Brien's newcomer Haven made a whopping 550,000gns at the sales and doesn't lack breeding, while Danny Murphy's Argentarius has shown definite promise.
