FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Successful on his stable debut at Ballinrobe last month, SATONO CHEVALIER had valid excuses when finishing midfield at Gowran Park subsequently. Rated higher in his prime, the eight-year-old retains plenty of ability at this stage of his career and he looks nicely treated here under a very capable apprentice. Slurricane would prefer a stiffer test of stamina, but the Ross O'Sullivan-trained gelding would have to be of definite interest if the forecast rain arrives. Dawn Coming, who has reached the frame on all five runs over flights since joining trainer Charles Byrnes, is another that catches the eye reverting to the Flat.
