Formscan - There is plenty to like about the manner in which BALLYMACKIE has flourished since joining Olly Murphy and the hat-trick seeking gelding is hard to oppose. After comprehensive successes at Leicester and Ayr, a further 7lb rise could be workable in this company. Duhallow Tommy and Royal Mer also have revised marks to contend with after last-time-out wins but should be competitive. Bottom-weight Another Folly is another to keep an eye on.
