FormscanBy Tom Weekes - MAGGIE MCGRATH ran well on debut and drops in grade from her Dundalk run. A half-sister to her yard's six-time winner A Step Too Far, she was slowly away on debut before finishing well and improved when third in a winners' race at Dundalk, with a previous winner (receiving 2lb) finishing fourth. All Mount Ruapehu's form is at six furlongs and while he could be suited by this distance, is vulnerable to more capable types. Red Sky At Night ran well on debut but didn't look entirely straightforward, in a hood, on her Curragh reappearance. Charles Bianconi debuted well and while the wheels subsequently fell off the wagon on heavy ground, will be better suited to drier ground, although dropping markedly in distance is concerning. Galileo-sired Aurum Sky, out of a Group 2 winner, won't be suited by this distance while Colin Keane rides Ocean Leader, a half-brother to Group-placed sprinter Strong Johnson.
