FormscanBy Mark Nunan - There should be more to come from the lightly-raced PRISONER’S DILEMMA and he gets the vote despite being unproven on polytrack. Johnny Levins’ Toronado gelding showed promise in maidens last year and beat subsequent improver Gee Rex on his handicap bow at Naas in June. His second at Cork when last seen in September was also a good effort. He acts well on good ground so one would hope that the surface here will not be an issue. Course regular Tyrconnell comes here in good form but, with 58 being the highest mark he’s won off, he’s very much up against it from his new rating of 70. Runner-up in three maidens, including twice at this track, Turbo Command is still open to improvement on his second start for Michael Halford and has run well off a break before, while The Mpex Kid is another Dundalk first-timer to consider with a top claimer riding this 4-year-old who had a good spell of form in 7f handicaps during the summer.
