FormscanBy Michael Graham - DANI'S BOY sprang a 50/1 surprise in Ballinrobe on Monday week ago, and can build upon that. Declan McDonogh has been booked again, and this five-year-old gelding has back form on rain-softened ground. A 4lb rise shouldn't stop him getting well involved. He won over a similar trip at the festival two years ago. King Christophe may outrun his odds. His last crack at a trip akin to this saw him run on in seventh, beaten less than six lengths, behind a winner who has since been beaten a neck in the Ulster Oaks on Friday. King Christophe is a veteran now, but is on his lowest mark ever of 54. He put in a decent shift for a long way in Killarney in mid-July before his effort petered out in the final quarter of a mile. That race was over an extended mile and three furlongs, though. There are ground concerns for Mulzamm.
