Formscan By Mark Nunan - Three miles on heavy ground seemed to stretch the stamina of BACKINTHEROOM when fourth at Limerick over Christmas. A maiden winner here last term, the Shantou gelding travelled strongly to get into contention before the straight last time and dropping back in trip should suit him. Slane Hill was a creditable third to a pair of in-form mares over course and distance on Thyestes Day last month. He still looked green on that handicap debut and is sure to be towards the head of the market from a 2lb higher mark. Legacy Thor has been running back into form this season after being out of action for almost two years. He wasn't beaten far when sixth in a stronger contest at Navan and a reproduction of that would see him involved. Flying Scotsman, who kept on well when second at Fairyhouse, represents a yard with a good recent record in this race and is partnered by an in-form claimer.%0A
