FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Having landed a significant gamble when winning here recently, the Matthew Smith trained SARMIENTO POWER can follow up. Placed twice off higher marks for previous connections, the son of Churchill was raised 9lb for that comfortable success. However, with leading apprentice Nicola Burns in the plate, the four-year-old should remain competitive. Third on her latest two outings at this track, Marians Gal should go well, while Skib Gold would be a strong contender if leaving a poor run at Tipperary behind him.
