Formscan By Michael Graham - SOTTSANDS has an each-way chance off a mark of 61. She showed much more off her sliding rating when a close fifth over further in Limerick. She was all out in the closing stages and was soon headed before dropping to fifth. This drop back in trip, off the same mark, can see her competitive. Angelo Pio won well in Down Royal at the end of last month. He has plenty of weight, but is a significant danger. He got first run on Alba Chiara who came through for second. She is likely to be involved again. Edergole's Angel finished behind Sottsands in seventh at Limerick, but ran short of room in the closing stages. She can get in the mix in a first-time visor.
