FormscanBy John O'Riordan - BREWEL HILL holds a leading chance off just 2lbs higher than when winning a similar race over course and distance last month. Although raised 4lbs for that success, his rider can claim half that impost back. Provided that the ground doesn't deteriorate too much, the Peter McCreery trained seven-year-old looks sure to be a major contender. Partisan Hero had threatened to win on a couple of occasions prior to getting off the mark at Gowran Park last time. Dermot Weld's gelding is a very lightly raced three-year-old but the potential for further improvement. Morning Approach has come down a few pounds in the handicap despite running well in recent months. The Dawn Approach mare is more than good enough to win off this rating so has to be respected under Cian Horgan.
