FormscanBy Alan Magee - LADIAM has gained both previous wins over course and distance and should go close if near peak fitness on her return after a lengthy winter break. The Norman Lee-trained mare has been generally consistent since including when runner-up at Ballinrobe. Ilbdare has also shown a liking for this venue and gained his only previous win when justifying strong support over an extended 3m1f on this corresponding card last year. It will be interesting to see if the market speaks in his favour returning after a break. Button Rock now wears blinkers after disappointing on handicap debut while Darragh O’Keeffe is a notable booking on Mother Ship.
