Formscan By John O'Riordan - BLAZING SKIES can make it third time lucky under one of the more experienced apprentices. Nathan Crosse takes over from Billy Lee on a filly who has already shown enough to suggest a contest such as this is within her capabilities. Fourth on her racecourse debut at Killarney in June, that form could hardly have worked out any better, with the first three all winning since. The Willie McCreery trained filly travelled really well but just appeared to get outstayed. Dropped to 7f at Gowran Park last time, she just found one too good. Lecale's Destiny also made a very promising debut at Gowran, before subsequently finishing fifth at the Curragh. If anything, he gave the impression that another furlong might suit. Pinehurst could also figure if coming on from his Naas debut fourth.
