Formscan By Gary Carson - GREAT ABILITY was probably value for more than his half length margin at Naas last time and looks capable of following up here off 5lb higher. The step up to seven furlongs recently has brought about significant improvement and the mile should hold no fears here. Eastern Rules was a good winner at Dundalk earlier in the month but the handicapper gave him 10lb for that and things look tougher now. Brown Butterfly had slipped a nice bit in the ratings before staying on strongly into second at Leopardstown last time. Off just a pound higher here another big show is likely on a more testing track. She looks to hold Stronger Than Me, who was fourth then and has also gone up a pound since.
