Formscan By John O'Riordan - It could pay to take a chance on the Joseph O'Brien-trained handicap debutant BEAUTIFUL AFFAIR. Unlucky in running when sent off a warm favourite on her racecourse debut at Dundalk, the daughter of Wootton Bassett then finished runner-up to Powerful Lady on her next start. However, it is her latest run, when third behind a pair of fillies now rated in the 90's that make her of interest here off just 77. The aforementioned Powerful Lady has to have every chance of confirming that previous form but may not have as much scope for improvement. Course maiden winner Orchidaceae will find this easier having finished mid division in a Group 3 contest at Leopardstown last time out.
