FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Cork maiden winner GRAND CITY HALL can make the breakthrough in handicap company. A fair fourth in a stronger race at the Curragh last time, the Jarlath Fahey-trained gelding only weakened inside the final furlong. Dropping back to 6f looks to be very much in his favour now, while Jack Cleary claims a valuable 7lb. Well drawn three off the rail, everything looks in place for a big run. Recent course and distance winner National Lady won't find life easy from a wide draw but the Ger Lyons-trained filly was impressive last time and looks to be an improving three-year-old. Clonmacash needs to step up on recent efforts but the application of a first-time visor may bring about further improvement.
