FormscanBy Michael Graham - A very tight contest. ME WEE BONNIE LASS brought up plenty of bets with a strong finish to plunder a mares' maiden hurdle on debut at Downpatrick in July. She had a subsequent mares' maiden hurdle winner behind her in third, and should have a future in this discipline. Conyers Hill enjoyed testing conditions in Clonmel as he sluiced home by eight lengths. If ridden patiently again, it isn't difficult to see him passing plenty of horses at the business end. Skradin was another wide-margin winner in Fairyhouse at the start of the month and deep ground plays to his strengths. Gwan Tadhg is in terrific form (three wins from his last four starts), but would prefer better ground.
