FormscanBy John O'Riordan - NASHVILLE NOTIONS has shown enough on four runs over flights to date to suggest that she can be competitive here. The five-year-old daughter of Milan will need to improve on her most recent effort at Wexford but on the balance of her previous form, she sets the standard. While an official rating of 96 wouldn't usually be good enough to win a maiden, this looks a modest contest for the grade. Kates Choice is open to further improvement having only had the two starts over hurdles. In normal circumstances one would expect her to pick up valuable experience en route to a handicap mark but this looks a winnable race. Annarubyrose is another with the potential to do better.
