FormscanBy Tom Weekes - MIGHT AND MERCY carries first-time blinkers and a tongue-tie but met trouble in-running at the Curragh recently, is suited by good ground and this distance and contests a winneable handicap. Her recent form is uninspiring and while blinkers are now reached for, both her wins have been at this distance and is 4lb lower than on recent starts. Jaafel was well held here recently and while he previously ran well at the Curragh, might ideally prefer a mile. Dazzling Spirit relishes soft ground but ran well on good when third at Listowel recently and can get involved. Coins Cross' best form is on soft ground. Monzoon, which is suited by good ground but has a slight preference for a mile, is declared to run at Limerick on Wednesday. Amanirenas is a slow-starter who stayed on late-on on her latest run.
