Formscan By John O'Riordan - SAVETHELASTDANCE can gain compensation in the penultimate Irish Classic of the year, having run a huge race when runner-up in the Epsom equivalent last month. Sent off odds-on favourite on the back of a demolition job in the Cheshire Oaks on her previous outing, the Aidan O'Brien trained filly had to be content with minor honours. However, the daughter of Galileo was doing her best work at the finish, something that suggests she will be even better suited to the long straight here. Stablemate Warm Heart looks the chief threat, having made giant strides in the last couple of months. Having only won her maiden in May, the filly then took a Listed race in Newbury before bringing up her hat-trick in the Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot. Irish 1000 Guineas third Comhra would have strong claims if returning to her best form after a disappointing run recently.
