FormscanBy Gary Carson - LOUGH LEANE has a nice low draw here and may be able to make the breakthrough for Maurice Ahern. The Cityscape gelding won six in England and has been knocking on the door since joining the Mallow handler. It was a solid effort to finish fourth at Gowran Park last time and he remains on the same mark. Merlin The Wizard looks like another with obvious claims after a couple of decent runs. It looked like a more competitive event in which he was fifth at Leopardstown last time and connections claim off him now. Expound is a dual course and distance winner but needs to improve on his recent showing at Limerick.
