FormscanBy Gary Carson - Sermandzarak is the sole winner in the field but was awarded that race after finishing second to Colcannon, who weighed in light here in February. It was still a promising effort by Gordon Elliott's charge though and he is entitled to improve. The eye is drawn to the Willie Mullins-trained newcomer KING RASKO GREY. The British and Irish champion trainer was really taken by the Galiway gelding after they paid €250,000 for him at the Arkle Sale last June and he is a fascinating debutant in this now. Henry de Bromhead's runner Dino Roque is another interesting newcomer as she is a half-sister to Grade 1 winner Readin Tommy Wrong.
