Going - Soft CHANGED to soft to heavy after 4th race.. Overcast with showers
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan By Michael Graham - OUT FOR A STROLL has questions to answer after being pulled up over flights in Downpatrick at the end of March, but had been in good nick in that sphere beforehand and is of interest reverting to the Flat for a strong stable. Her victory in a Limerick maiden hurdle over Christmas was decent form. Dumb Love is another switching from hurdling and can get into the mix with 7lb claimed off her back. Fascinating Shadow showed more when fourth in Cork, while Master Garvey is another to consider after posting decent results on the Polytrack in Dundalk.
