FormscanBy Mark Nunan - Naas maiden winner ULSTER BLACKWATER was sent off 100/1 for a Group 3 here last month and was duly outclassed behind Bear Story. The Camelot filly will find this company a lot more conducive and a chance is taken that she will see out the 1m4f trip which she tries for the first time. Only Sky disappointed on her previous visit here but the form of her Ballinrobe win reads well and a better run can be expected with Colin Keane now on board. Three times a winner over course and distance, Storm Steps warmed up for this with a spin at the Curragh earlier in the month and has to enter calculations along with Nibiru who ran creditably in a claimer here on his most recent appearance and whose trainer has enjoyed a successful month.
