FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Beaten exactly half-a-length into second on three of his last four starts over the course and distance, NIBRAS RAINBOW would be a deserving winner. Twice successful when trained in the UK, the four-year-old was second to a stable companion on his most recent outing and had the reopposing Marks Bear in behind. Bungle Inthedesert caught the eye when filling the runner-up spot on Friday and the John McConnell-trained bay is given second preference. Likely to be suited by this step up in trip to a mile, it'll be disappointing if he is not involved towards the business end. Successful over the course and distance in January, Roman Palace is sure to prove popular with punters. Upped 6lb for that win, she could well defy the handicapper off her revised mark of 55. The aforementioned Marks Bear, Ciaran Murphy's Soyounique and six-time course winner Whatharm are others for the shortlist in this competitive affair.
