FormscanBy John O'Riordan - TICK ALONG improved on anything she had done previously when winning at Downpatrick last month. While there is no guarantee that the Tom McCourt-trained mare can replicate that performance on a very different track, she is still the most likely winner. Locally trained Spring Street also put up a career best last time, staying on nicely to finish second at this venue in April. He too, needs to show that he can reproduce that effort but if doing so, he has to be a contender. Tennessee Titan ran a big race when third over 3m at Cork last month but failed to back that up when dropped in trip last time. Perhaps this intermediate distance will see him in a better light.
