FormscanBy Alan Magee - FIRSTMAN won at Dundalk last autumn and has been in good form on turf in recent months winning over this trip at Roscommon and Bellewstown. The Tony Martin-trained gelding has gone up a total of 15lb as a result but remains on an upward curve. Beautiful Chaos opened her account in a Killarney maiden last Saturday and has actually been dropped a couple of pounds by the handicapper with Jody Townend an obvious plus in the saddle. Khezaana caused a 66/1 shock in this race last year under Linzi Dowdall but has to give weight all round this time, while El Tren won the previous two renewals and the veteran has been given a chance by the handicapper. Blackpoint is another for the shortlist.
