Formscan By Alan Magee - MONEY DANCER handled testing ground well when making a winning debut at the Curragh last spring. Her form tailed off in three subsequent Flat outings, but the Belardo filly made a very encouraging start over hurdles at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting when staying on well into third behind Wendrock with Last Kingdom 16 lengths back in fourth. Ephesus won a 1m4f Curragh maiden for Aidan O’Brien and finished a moderate third behind the impressive Sainte Lucie when switched to hurdles here last month with Chortal over ten lengths behind. Castleheath won on the Flat at Sligo and made a bright start over hurdles at Cork.
