Formscan By John O'Riordan - Having needed every yard of the mile trip when scoring here last month, KEEPSGETTINGBETTER should appreciate stepping up in distance. A daughter of Sottsass, the Donnacha O'Brien-trained filly is bred to stay and, should have more improvement in her after just the four career starts. A stablemate of the selection, Elm Creek ran well when third over this trip on turf at Navan. Only weakening in the latter stages, the Australia colt might find this easier track more to his liking. Unplaced in three maiden runs over shorter, the Joseph O'Brien-trained Musashi is one that catches the eye in a first-time visor on his handicap debut.
