FormscanBy John O'Riordan - A half-sister to Group 1 winner Babouche, all eyes will be on the Ger Lyons-trained newcomer HINDER. With the ground riding slow on turf at the moment, Lyons has elected to introduce the well-bred daughter of Expert Eye here on the all-weather. While she will certainly need to be a bit above average to strike on debut, this looks a winnable race at the same time. Allsortz sets a decent standard among those that have already run. Keen throughout when second over course and distance last time, the David Marnane-trained gelding did well in the circumstances. Real Encounter shaped well enough on two previous starts to suggest that she can also make her presence felt.
