FormscanBy Gary Carson - This looks like a good opportunity for IPANEMA BEACH. The well-bred Siyouni colt, a son of Group 3 winner Sizzling, has been placed twice from four starts but was probably a bit below par on softer ground at Killarney last time. He is fitted with blinkers now. Strikewhileitshot was no match for the impressive Montreal at Leopardstown last time but that was a step forward from his first run and he could play a bigger part now. Clarity Of Thought made little impression on his handicap debut at Killarney but had shown some ability in his first two runs and blinkers may help now.
