Formscan By Donal Murphy - THECOMPANYSERGEANT is probably one of the safer options in this open contest. He came from off the pace to finish a good third on his racecourse debut at the Galway Festival and looks capable of going a few places better now with John Gleeson again in the saddle. Lake Winnipesaukee also came from off the pace to finish third at Cork on what was his debut for Gavin Cromwell. The son of Arcadio is open to further improvement and should go close. Champagnesocialist is another leading contender. She is a full-sister to Champagne Problem, the selection in the second. A runner-up on her first two starts in 2020 when trained by Tom Taaffe, she again finished second when returning to action on her debut for John McConnell at Musselburgh in January. Fourth and fifth at Sligo earlier this month, Artemis Angel and Set My Love Free both warrant respect, while Memories Never Die and High Ski are others of note.
