Formscan By Gary Carson - BLACKSMITHS FORGE has run well in a couple of maiden hurdles since winning her bumper at Downpatrick back in July and can get off the mark over jumps now. The Kalanisi filly was beaten just over two-and-a-half lengths when fourth to Mexican Moonshine at Roscommon 12 days ago and doesn't have to improve much on that to take this. The selection can again hold Lady Nightingale, who was sixth in that Roscommon race, having been runner-up on her previous outing at Kilbeggan. Whitewinewednesday ran well when third at Tramore last time, although that probably wasn't as strong a race.
