FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Recent Down Royal winner NORTH COAST can follow up in this stronger grade. Although he arguably didn't have much to beat at the northern venue, the Joseph O'Brien-trained colt landed short odds in impressive fashion. However, it is the form of his debut third at the Curragh last month that gives him leading claims. The winner of that race was narrowly beaten in a Group 3 subsequently, while the fourth horse was unlucky in running when just losing out in his maiden. Gowran Park debut winner Daytona is sure to have taken a significant step forward from that promising introduction. Green Soul is another with every chance in a competitive affair.
