Going - Good, good to yielding in places. Fine

Formscan By Michael Graham - MACHISMO was clearly outgunned in second behind a 129-rated winner at Thurles, but doesn't meet the same calibre of horse here. Finn Brickley's 7lb claim should have him heavily involved in this staying assignment. Nelson County faced tough tasks in maiden hurdles, but there was definite promise in his third place on handicap debut at Fairyhouse. Flemensface has shown more than enough to get in the mix albeit he has been performing on slower ground. Rachael Blackmore is a notable booking for Arion Soldier who has been off track since October, while Lucky Viv has been acquitting herself well on heavy ground. Last year's winner Sir Bob and Toor Khov cannot be ruled out.
