Formscan By Mark Nunan - ROBYNDEGLORY appears better than ever this year and recorded a fourth career win when drawing clear on the run-in over 2m4f at Fairyhouse last month. The step up to three miles is not a concern having won over the trip at Wexford last year and she probably put up her best effort when staying on in fifth behind Queens Brook in Grade 3 company last time at Punchestown. Whatsavailable also takes a drop in class after competing at the Dublin Racing Festival last month. The topweight previously won over 2m4f at Fairyhouse. Champella, who won three times last year including over 2m4f at Wexford, is another for the shortlist while Riggs stays well and was third to the progressive Verdant Place at Punchestown last month. Limerick maiden winner Alpesh Amin will have to prove his stamina on handicap debut.
