Formscan By Donal Murphy - A notoriously competitive affair, with the last winning favourite coming way back in 2013. The subject of much controversy when supposedly unseating at Wexford in May, it'll be fascinating to see how REDWOOD QUEEN fares on her first start for Cian Collins. The up and coming Co Meath based handler has acquired the services of leading amateur Rob James, who claims an invaluable 7lb. Second, fifth and ninth in last year's renewal, Miss Fourie (first time cheekpieces), Jolie Jewel and Enfranchise all warrant respect. Now in the care of Willie McCreery, the latter was sent off favourite 12-months ago and returns to flights for the first time since. The lightly-raced Farfromnowhere, Joseph O'Brien's Carried With Love and the hat-trick seeking Billie Frechette are others for the shortlist.
