FormscanBy Michael Graham - MAXIOS PRIME could take advantage of receiving plenty of weight from her main rivals. She brings very solid form to this contest having delivered in a Fairyhouse handicap hurdle in February before finishing a more than fair third in a valuable fillies' juvenile handicap hurdle at Cheltenham in April. A couple of spins on the Flat ought to have sharpened Theflyingbee up and her runner-up berth over flights at Navan in December has been well franked. Dame Rapide held every chance at the last before finishing third on seasonal reappearance at Ballinrobe. That was her first start for Cian Hughes and she has been a money-spinner for her former trainers. There are ground concerns for Rockview Consort with more rain due.
