FormscanBy John O'Riordan - WEST OF WICHITA is worth another chance despite running well below par on handicap debut at the Curragh last time. Sent off favourite on that occasion, the Kevin Coleman-trained filly weakened inside the final furlong having hung left throughout. Back on a track where she ran one of her better races, when runner-up to a subsequent winner in a maiden, she can get off the mark. Calum Hogan has enough experience at this stage to be value taking off 10lb. Sanshiro, who finished a place ahead of the Coleman filly at the Curragh, could be capable of better in first-time cheekpieces. The Dandy Man gelding has shaped with a degree of promise in his maidens. Uncle Albert should be suited to dropping back to sprinting having only weakened late on over 7f at the Curragh on his most recent start.
