FormscanBy Michael Graham - There were excuses when PALMEZZANO was pulled up in Leopardstown and he is worth another go. On his penultimate start, he travelled well before giving best by half a length in second in the same grade at Navan. First-time cheekpieces are applied. Cala Bonita, down at the bottom of the weights, has struck form with a runner-up berth at Tipperary preceding a victory in Gowran Park. She can get into the mix on this step up in trip. Pinball Wizard has winning form over an extended 10-furlongs from Sligo and is of interest on his first start for John McConnell having finished second in an optional claimer at Gowran Park last month. Letiza is another for the shortlist.
