FormscanBy Michael Graham - More testing ground looks to be on the agenda for Gowran Park and, in that case, it may be best to side with LIGHTNING BOLTZ. Willie McCreery's colt put in a good shift for second place on soft ground at Galway in August. He looks primed to strike after a close third in Dundalk at the start of the month. Let Me Pass was a beaten favourite in second at Killarney when headed inside the final furlong of that extended mile contest. That was on yielding to soft ground which bodes well for him handling this tougher terrain. The drop back to seven furlongs could suit well. Jack Davison's Valour handled heavy ground when fourth at Galway last month and shouldn't be underestimated.
