Formscan By Gary Carson - HANDANI can make it third time lucky here. The Medaglia D’oro gelding has been runner-up on both starts to date, including on his return at Leopardstown earlier this month. He had Let’s Smash It behind in third when chasing home Hard Promises that day and should be able to confirm form with that rival now. Dermot Weld has a strong hand here with another in the late Aga Khan’s colours, Sunatia. This Night Of Thunder filly ran a big race, at a massive price, at the Curragh last month when chasing home Star Performer. That form got a boost with the winner going on to land a Listed race in fine style.
