FormscanBy Michael Graham - FORGETTHESURPRISE was very impressive when cruising in by 13 lengths over two miles six furlongs in Navan, and should make her presence felt over this longer trip. She had a fair spin in third on the flat in Bellewstown at the start of the month which should have her ripe for this. Fire Love was the horse that came home a remote second in that contest and connections will think she can get closer under 12lb better terms. Swiss Brid was a solid second over an extended three miles in Kilbeggan and will be aiming for a cheque. Balgowlah makes the long trek down from the north after performing well in second over a staying trip on soft ground at Roscommon.
