Formscan By John O'Riordan - With the form of the race in which she made her debut at this track last month working out really well, EMERALD BANNER could be set to take a significant step forward. Although only fifth on the day, the Jessica Harrington trained filly ran a bit better than that bare form, having run green in the latter stages of that contest. With the benefit of that experience to call upon, she should be much more streetwise on this occasion. Sweetest failed to live up to pre-race expectations when managing only third place on her recent debut at Cork. The fact she was sent off an odds-on favourite clearly suggests that the Aidan O'Brien trained filly is a smart juvenile. Back Down Under is more exposed than most but has shown enough ability in four runs to suggest she can play a part.
