Formscan By Michael Graham - The Lyons team have always believed that RAGGA BOMB is a horse for this season and he could be worth chancing on handicap debut. His Cork maiden success has been very well franked by the third home who is now rated 100. After winning on debut at this racecourse, Democracy kept excellent company last season without being placed. He ought to appreciate this assignment. This is Nerano's first try on turf after winning one of his three Dundalk races. The forecast fast ground should be right up his street being by War Front. Transcending Glory and Grand City Hall arrive in winning form and will have their supporters.
