FormscanBy Michael Graham - TEED UP has shown a real aptitude for rain-softened ground which will stand him in good stead for this competitive race. Ken Condon's Gleneagles gelding has plenty of ability as evidenced by two victories (including over a similar trip at this track) and three placed efforts from his five appearances. His consistency is admirable as hasn't run a bad race to date. The form of Soaring Monarch's fourth place in Tipperary is working out well. He now avails of Dylan Browne McMonagle's 5lb claim, so a big run could be forthcoming. Hat-trick-seeking Theophile won on handicap debut in Leopardstown and has to rate a threat off 7lb higher. The Bolger stable had an across-the-card double on Saturday. Zofar Zogood is more than capable on tough terrain and could bounce back to form. Dragon Of Malta is another for the shortlist.
