FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Recent Naas third VERVAIN can gain a first career success. Prominent throughout, the Joseph Murphy-trained filly stayed on strongly to chase home two solid yardsticks. Stepping up in trip should suit the daughter of Acclamation, despite connections opting to dispense with the cheekpieces that she wore last time. This looks a good chance to open her account. Racing over this distance for the first time should also really suit the Michael Grassick-trained Amavasya. A daughter of Sea The Moon, she is bred to appreciate a proper stamina test. Well backed when mid-division last time, Mischief Man can improve with the aid of first-time cheekpieces.
