FormscanBy Donal Murphy - None of the six can be safely ruled out, with just 5lb between them all on ratings. Ultimately disappointing since winning on his second start at Limerick in September of 2020, the locally trained BLACKPOINT is the suggestion with Shane Foley aboard. He ran a solid race on his return to action last month, clearly improving from that effort by filling the runner-up spot on his next start at Tipperary. The Kodiac gelding came from off the pace at the Limerick Junction venue and may benefit from more positive tactics now. Expound went down by just half-a-length at Ballinrobe last month and is given second preference, stepping up in trip to a mile-and-a-half. Successful over flights at Sligo on Sunday, Dark Note would be popular with punters if turning out again quickly.
