Formscan By Mark Nunan - The performance of Mr Social in the first division of this handicap will be of no little relevance to this contest as HARD TARGET chased home that horse at Tramore just over a week ago. The top weight, a winner at Clonmel during the winter, has strung together a sequence of creditable placed efforts this summer which includes a runner-up finish over course and distance last month. Man After Midnight was five lengths behind the selection here in July and that was her best effort so far. If showing no ill effects from a fall at Wexford, she can throw down a challenge. Black Tonic kept on nicely into fifth at Kilbeggan on his first completed start for Richard O'Brien and this half-mile longer trip may see him in a better light.%0A
