FormscanBy John O'Riordan - ARDERA GUN(6) has been working his way into form so far this term and this contest will not take much winning. Eoin Doyle's six-year-old put a Wexford mishap behind him to reach the frame at Gowran Park, before taking another step forward to fill the runner-up spot at Limerick most recently. A 2lb rise in the ratings looks fair and the son of Yeats gets the verdict. Although Rebel Queen and Allroadsleadtorome both struggled in maidens, they could improve now entering handicaps, while the veteran Butty O Brien can't be ruled out either.
