FormscanBy Mark Nunan - There was money around for ARCH ENEMY before she finished well for third at Sligo and Michael Mulvany’s filly can go well off a light weight with a good 7lb claimer aboard. With six races under her belt at this stage, the daughter of Alhebayeb can put that race experience to good use for a trainer who does well in this type of contest. Topweight Swift One had three of these rivals behind when an emphatic winner on handicap debut over course and distance last month. A 12lb hike will obviously make things harder but he could be progressive enough to cope with that and looks a big danger. Aidan O’Brien’s pair Heart To Heart and Pimlico have identical ratings and have been a little disappointing thus far, but can’t be discounted in this company on the best of their form. Memories Motel ran her best race so far when third in first-time blinkers at Cork last weekend and should be competitive off her initial mark with a top apprentice in the plate.
