FormscanBy Michael Graham - MY FRIEND THE WIND came home well to get up at Kilbeggan and could follow up. He has shown a real aptitude for Ballinrobe with a victory and four places posted at the western venue, and is also well versed on slower ground. Ballagh Star was a close third behind My Friend The Wind in Kilbeggan and is weighted to get his revenge, so ought to be thereabouts. Veteran The Little Yank will be giving his all in pursuit of an eighth career success and isn't out of it after a fourth place over flights at Kilbeggan. The Gavin Cromwell pair of Sights Unseen and the up in trip My Good Pal are in the hunt for a payday.
