FormscanBy Michael Graham - A very tricky race. LIAMO won over a slightly shorter trip at this track in June and has prospects of going in again. That was his first visit to Listowel and since then he has been placed in Killarney (on testing ground) and Leopardstown. Mogwli, who was runner-up in Punchestown, and Shawaamekh, who is sliding down the weights, will enjoy conditions but do have to overcome tough draws in 17 and 16 respectively. Title-chasing Dylan Browne McMonagle is an eye-catching first-time booking for the veteran Shawaamekh. Alex Belardo ought to be competitive off a mark of 54, while The Blue Panther has been off since November, and starts out for a new stable, but is capable on slow ground.
