FormscanBy Tom Weekes - FLIER should appreciate the forecast rain and softening of ground and ran well over course and distance in July. Her form is hit-and-miss but remains somewhat unexposed as a four-year-old and a reproduction of her latest run, on soft, would give her every chance from the inside draw. Stay Local has been frustrating and was behind the selection in July but also likes soft ground and should get involved under her 4lb claimer. Kampala Beach has obvious claims despite being 6lb higher than when winning at Leopardstown last month but would prefer good ground. Breagagh ran well at Naas in July but is a 32-race maiden while Lucky Queen is suited by easy ground and this distance and ran well at Killarney in July. Lissadell, a 110,000gns yearling, has yet to show ability and runs in first time cheekpieces and tongue-tie.
