FormscanBy Mark Nunan - CHURCH MOUNTAIN kept on quite well when fourth at Cork last month and the extra furlong here may be to his advantage. Denis Hogan’s charge, fitted with first-time cheekpieces, is 7lb lower in the ratings than his initial assessment and can get off the mark on his fourth start in handicaps. Cu Roi shaped with plenty of encouragement when fourth on seasonal and handicap debut at Gowran on Monday, and he looks a danger if building on that over this longer trip. Maloja is another possible improver stepping up in trip and starts from a lowly mark for a powerful yard, while Female Approach, declared to run at Fairyhouse on Friday, ran well at Sligo in a race that has produced a couple of winners and would be a contender on that form.
