FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Escort'namix failed to capitalise on what appeared a straightforward opportunity here a week ago, going down by six and a half lengths to Moll Dote. Sent off an odds-on favourite on that occasion, the daughter of Al Namix has the chance to redeem herself now, dropping in trip to two miles. The 100 rated bay is tried with a tongue-strap for the first time now, and it'll come as no surprise if she manages to get her head in front with Sean O'Keeffe taking five pounds off. For a selection I'll side with the Henry de Bromhead trained SANI PASS. Second in a point-to-point when trained by Michael Flannery, she finished sixth on her debut for current connections at Bellewstown earlier this month, and there should be plenty more to come from the daughter of Robin Des Pres. Memories Remain has some solid form to her name and it'll be disappointing if she not involved towards the business end here, while the Declan Queally trained Dinny's Ginny and The Girl That Sang for Edward O'Grady are others to keep on side.
