Formscan By John O'Riordan - Recent Bellewstown runner-up ERIC LOCK can step up one place here. A winner on turf at Down Royal in May, the Noel Meade-trained gelding is now just 1lb higher. However, once taking his apprentice riders' claim into account, the son of Advertise looks very well treated. Jockey Emily Grifferty was also in the saddle when the three-year-old finished second at this track in April. That form has been seriously boosted subsequently with the winner now rated 20lb higher. Topweight Just Before has to be of interest in first-time blinkers. A consistent filly in recent months, she looks well treated off 74. Colin Keane looks a significant booking on Cork sixth Senti Qua.
