FormscanBy Mark Nunan - A step up to 7f on easy ground should be the sort of test to bring the best out of MOTHER EARTH. After a luckless run at Royal Ascot, she easily won a Listed event at Naas on soft ground and the form of her Group 2 third to Aloha Star and Frenetic at this track has been franked since. She can get the better of Shale, who’s clearly a big danger after a convincing Group 3 win at Leopardstown for which she’s unpenalised. She seemed to win fair and square on that occasion, with Pretty Gorgeous, Snowfall and Finest all behind her, and she handled soft ground when winning her maiden at Gowran. Meala was a runaway winner of a maiden at Galway and it’ll be interesting to see how she fares up in class.
