FormscanBy Mark Nunan - MULLINS CROSS won at Sligo in August and went down fighting when runner-up to Red Ball Of Fire at the same venue last week. The 5-year-old has been raised 2lb in future handicaps but can run off her old mark here and she should go well under a very capable amateur. Kate Ill Know won a maiden here on debut in March and returned to form when third at Galway earlier this month. She’s still unexposed and capable of better while Go Gill Go has the assistance of Jamie Codd and is another mare that has to enter calculations. She has been holding her form well in handicaps since winning a maiden at Sligo in July. Master Cornwall also has a top amateur in the saddle and the 4-year-old had been placed in four of his previous five starts before being pulled up last time at Tramore.
