Formscan By Tom Weekes - HOSTILITY could be inconvenienced by testing ground conditions but showed nice ability in three runs last season and contests a winnable maiden. Well-bred, he has been defeated by five useful Ballydoyle-trained runners and one other stablemate in his races todate. He has shown form on yielding ground at Listowel last September so it is hoped he can cope with today’s likely easier surface. Raykir is very much proven on soft and while he holds Admiral Churchill (now tried in blinkers, having been gelded) on March form, was well held at Dundalk recently and might struggle to beat the selection.
