FormscanBy Alan Magee - DROMORE GLORY won over course and distance in January and has filled the runner-up spot on both outings since also over 1m4f. The Paul Flynn-trained gelding was just denied by Deed Pole last time with Slowdownbarney a length and a half back in third and Gardone in sixth. The booking of talented 7lb claimer Nicola Burns could prove significant, while joint topweight Gallo Dell Cielo is another with an ultra-consistent profile. He won at Gowran last autumn and following three placed efforts on the Polytrack, successfully stepped up to 1m4f just before Christmas with Slowdownbarney in third. Highland King and Noble Expression may prove best of the remainder.
