FormscanBy John O'Riordan - THUNDER received a very astute ride from Danny Mullins when making all at Tramore last time but the John Ryan-trained gelding could be capable of better still. The five-year-old had his race in safekeeping from a long way out so dropping back down in trip may not be such an inconvenience. The winning jockey switches to Katou on this occasion and the Willie Mullins-trained mare has to be respected. Although disappointing on her most recent run at Roscommon, the daughter of Shantou emerged victorious at Tramore on her penultimate start. Killeemore Lad is chasing a hat-trick following wins at Hexham and Kilbeggan respectively. Andrew Slattery's five-year-old has to carry a penalty but is partnered by a decent young conditional.
