FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Having shown significant improvement when runner-up at Listowel last month, DRUMADEISE(13) can go one place better. Wearing first-time cheekpieces, the Paddy Corkery trained mare was always prominent before keeping on well once headed. Stepping up an additional two-furlongs on a tight track such as this looks ideal for the daughter of Diamond Boy. Provided the headgear has the desired effect once more, she is entitled to be involved. Having run one of his best races to date when fourth at Galway recently, Gypsy Poet is also worthy of consideration. A lightly raced mare, the Ger Keane trained Magic Hands Noel shaped with promise when sixth at Navan last time. A daughter of Blue Bresil. she holds place claims at the very least.
