FormscanBy John O'Riordan - MISS ABBY JOOLS can strike here, having enjoyed little luck in running when third over course and distance on her previous visit. Trainer Michael Halford has his string back in rude health in recent weeks and this three-year-old looks a winner in waiting. Sierra Nevada kept on nicely when fourth over 10f here last time. Dropping back in trip doesn't appear an obvious positive but the booking of champion jockey Colin Keane certainly is. Phoenix Open has long given the impression of being a well handicapped horse. Despite winning on turf at Gowran Park last month, he has to remain of significant interest back on the polytrack. International Lady and Tynamite are others to consider in a competitive heat.
