Formscan By Tom Weekes - CONNEMARA SHORE has poor racecourse form but notably won a point-to-point last November and looks likely to win from her current low rating. The form of her Moig South point-to-point has worked out nicely, as the runner-up subsequently scored between the flags, and while she blundered her rider out of the saddle at Navan last month, she had been well-supported pre-race. Duce Bigalow is an 11-race maiden but is a dependable performer in this grade and likes testing ground. God Help Us returns following a break while Ag Obair Go Crua’s endeavours have been paying off recently.
