Formscan By Mark Nunan - THECOMPANYSERGEANT handled heavy ground when winning a maiden at Navan last season and went on to be placed at Grade 2 level over this trip. Fourth in a valuable handicap at the Listowel festival, he'll be suited by a return to this distance and is on a nice racing weight. Firm Footings knuckled down well to beat a higher-rated rival in at Sligo and has been given a 5lb hike. He didn't see out this trip when sixth in the Martin Pipe but may be a stronger model now. Ballybawn Belter has won three times in handicap company this year and had plenty to spare when scoring over a longer trip at Ballinrobe. She's up 9lb for that and the ground will be more testing on this occasion which is not sure to suit.
