FormscanBy Michael Graham - There didn't appear to be any fluke about Give Me A Moment's victory at 33/1 in Tipperary and, afterwards, connections said he had been working well. He has claims of defying a 7lb raise but the concern would be that he wants nice ground. BACKINTHEBOOM could be the one, off bottom-weight. He is a long-standing maiden but put in his best effort by some way when last seen filling the runner-up berth at Clonmel in March. The third in that race has franked the form with two victories. Backintheboom's trainer, Philip Rothwell, has been operating at a near 30 per cent strike rate in the last three weeks. Drummullagh Rocky attempted to make all in Downpatrick and was still well clear when falling four out. It could be dangerous to give him too much rope here. Our Friend and Mullaghmurphy Blue also have claims.
