FormscanBy Michael Graham - Ocovango gelding COCOVIC wouldn't be winning out of turn having posted runner-up berths at Kilbeggan and Killarney over the summer. He is a former point-to-point winner who was only denied a first racecourse success when caught close home in Killarney. Sophia Rose looks the danger particularly as she is only rated 2lb inferior and has a nice pull in the weights when including the 7lb claim of Eoin Staples. She is lightly raced and her best form has been over a shorter distance, but this trip shouldn't be an issue in a small field. Newcomer Ballykeel Girl is a full-sister to a maiden hurdle runner-up in Britain, so could outrun her odds.
