Formscan By Michael Graham - GLORY TO BE attracted plenty of support in Cork and ran a pleasing race in third. That was her first start since switching to Michael Grassick and the form received a boost when the runner-up came out and landed a Tipperary maiden. Washington Street put together a sequence of three runner-up berths in a row before underperfoming at Cork. He holds Men Of Honour (second and fifth respectively) on their runs over course and distance at the end of June and could readily bounce back to form. Snowballs has winners in his pedigree and this newcomer could show up well for Willie McCreery, while Desert Power is entitled to come on from his first run back last month after a long absence.
