Going - Soft, Yielding to Soft in places. Dry

Formscan By Gary Carson - BRIGHTERDAYSAHEAD is an exciting prospect and can take the next step up the ladder here. The well-bred Kapgarde filly won her two bumpers in fine style and was good, if a bit novicey at times, on her jumping bow at Thurles just over three weeks ago. It probably wasn't ideal making her own running then and in a better race, with a lead, she should be seen to better effect. Williamstowndancer has already won at this level and commands utmost respect. She does have to carry a penalty for her Tipperary success however which will make life a bit tougher. Birdie Or Bust, who was third to her last time, is a few pounds better off and is another that has to be on the shortlist.
