FormscanBy Tom Weekes - MISTER WILSON has improved on testing ground in recent weeks. His recent good form is over 7f-1m and while dropping to 6f is a concern, does revel in testing conditions and should cope with an 8lbs hike for winning easily at Galway. Joint top-weight King Of Bavaria showed smart ability in winning on easy ground on debut at Naas in May. The form of that race is smart and while he has presumably met with a setback since, is open to progression. Thunder Eclipse's form is at this trip, is proven on testing ground and comes here in good form but from a high enough rating. Rhythm Of Zain has winning form on yielding and while clearly progressive, meets deep ground today, which is a concern. Tartan Skirt effortlessly won an ordinary maiden on easy ground at the Curragh recently and cannot be dismissed on handicap debut under a 7lbs claimer. Heart To Heart, by Zoffany whose progeny like soft ground, seemed to show improvement on soft at Navan while Magniffico won a nursery at the Curragh last month but is largely unproven on testing ground. Unconquerable Keen is another recent nursery winner with possible going concerns.
