FormscanBy Tom Weekes - TUDOR CITY might pick this up, possibly en route to the Galway Hurdle. Not the force of old, he did stay on to good effect at the Curragh latest and competes from a low weight with today's extra furlong likely to suit. Iowa won the Ulster Derby last month and while previously frustrating and at times difficult, has seemed to have to turn a corner. Being well bred, he remains open to further improvement but is nonetheless 10lbs higher. Soaring Sky, in first-time cheek-pieces, was second in the Ulster Oaks and comes here with obvious claims from her mark while Hook Head is a dual staying winner who is in good form. Chiricahua is also a dual winner and a proven stayer and finished mid-field in a similar race last month. Dancing Approach met some trouble in-running at Roscommon latest and should appreciate today's extra distance. Broad Street, an entire, was third in a valuable 2020 mile handicap but hasn't run since September.
