FormscanBy Mark Nunan - BRIGHT MOMENT came home well to be second over a mile at Gowran and looks capable of handicap success. John Feane trained her half-sister to win three races including over this trip on fast ground and the dam was a dual all-weather winner up to 1m4f, so 1m2f on a sound surface should suit the lightly-raced five-year-old who will be making just her sixth start. Lisamaria has been running consistently well and has Colin Keane’s assistance for the first time. She bumped into a well-treated rival at Tipperary and the form of her third at Gowran has worked out very well. Trying ten furlongs for the first time, she should go well. Cleopatra’s Needle has a wide draw but is another capable of going close. Fourth over course and distance on her reappearance, she was third at Tipperary last time where her stamina seemed stretched beyond its limit over 1m4f. Ten furlongs will suit better and a hood is employed for the first time. %0A
